Bio-metrics Day -

You have to visit different location for US Bio-metrics Process. Please reach to this location not before 15 mins.
Important point, please do not carry unnecessary documents and files. If something is really urgent, you can use the locker facility.
You can finish complete process within 15 mins.

Interview Day

As far as my interview day, please reach to Embassy on time and not before time. There would be so many people and everyone will reach 1Hr
before. My suggestion is please reach location not before 15 mins.Be calm. Don't worry about your visa and process. It just small interview process.
Please don't carry mobile phones if possible. You can again use the locker facility but try to avoid distractions.
Once you enter into the premises, the guys will ask you to arrange the documents in the sequence. Please do it and go ahead for the next room.
You will need to submit the Visa Fees (DD) followed by the Bio metrics verification.
After this, you will need to stand in one of the queue and you need to go sequentially to one of the window.

My Interview Experience

Me & my Wife - Good Morning
VO - Please handover your I129S and Passports
He was going through the documents and suddenly first question to my wife (This was really different that how we prepared)
VO - What's your birth place?
My wife - Place Name
VO - When you got married?
My Wife - Exact date (< 11 months)
VO - (Tricky Question) Do you have kids?
My Wife - No
VO - (Immediate question to me) Why do you want to visit US?
Me - Explained my roles and responsibilities and reason for the visit for 2 mins
VO - Are you going to client location?
Me - No (I am visiting to sister company)
VO - Please tell me about your roles and responsibilities
Me - Explained that (Sensor technology and all)
VO - Is it optical sensor?
Me - I said no and told my work area

VO was checking few topics on the screen and was not completely convinced. (Pressure Moment)
He took Red slip and handed over to me, I thought it got rejected. :(
VO said we cannot completely approve your Visa, we will keep your passport and submit Call Letter from your US Organization, Detailed Resume and some more information.
I was completely confused and was not sure at that time whether this is Refused or Approved. (I had this info - If passport is returned to you, its refused. If it is accepted, its approved). This is partially correct, Administrative processing is the third aspect where VO is not sure to approve VISA at that time and needs to recheck your all documents.
Please do not get panic with this situation. Please submit the docs on time whatever VO has asked and wait for the answer from Embassy. Hopefully, you will get the Visa.
