L1, L2 Visa

Thanks for this great forum which helped me a lot to prepare well for interview. We had a interview on 5th April at 9:30 and reached consulate 30 min before. Checked

with security and he directed to correct queue.
Waited for around 15 min and took token after showing interview confirmation letter.Security check happened and as my wife carried her purse, they asked to put that

bag outside. Outside consulate, there is one guy who keeps your bags/CDs/keys/Mobile which is not allowed inside and they will give you receipt for the same and you

can collect your belongings after interview. In my case this took aroung 10 min so better not to carry such things. Just carry your documents in plastic folder or in

polythene bag.

We went inside and immediately our token flashed on screen. Went to counter and waited for my turn. Submitted L1 documents to the counter and he put it in order and

gave it back. He asked to go to counter 12. But I missed this part and thought he asked me to go to next building where interview gets conducted and I missed to get

ten-printed. I went to adjusent building and there submitted L1 DD to the first counter (counter No 14) where Indian lady was collecting it and giving receipt.

And then waited for 20 min and my turn came for counter 21. VO was young lady and was very cool. Here is the conversation.

ME: Hi GOod Morning
VO: GOod Morning..How are you doing?

ME: doing great. How about you?
VO: Good

VO: Where did you came from?
ME: I came from pune last night.

VO: Oh Last night
VO: Where are you staying?
ME: Taj

VO: Oh..Is your company paying for this?
ME: Yes

VO: Otherwise it would have been very expensive for you..and she started looking into petition and system.

VO: Have you scannede your fingerprints?
ME: Not really. Nobody told me to do so.

VO: Looks like you were so exited that you didn't hear at the counter.Anyways I'll take your interview first and then you can take your fingerprints scanned.
ME: OK

VO: What's your specialization?
ME: My specialization is deep understanding about xxxSuite of applications which xxx proprietery solution and in-depth understanding about proprietery frameworks.

VO: Where this product was getting used?
ME: Here I didn't hear properly and gave wrong answer but VO stopped me and repeated question and then I said this product is getting used on all big equipments

VO: How long you have been with current company? and she was typing something some thing on her system.
ME: 6 Years 6 months

VO: She stamped on 3 I129 forms and returned me all documents with passport and asked to wait in lobby.
 
At that time I was not sure if she really approved visa? After same time One of the helper guy came to me and he saw passport in my hand and he asked, are you done

with interview? I said yes and then he immediately said, your visa has been denied and you can leave now. I told him that, VO asked me to wait as I didn't take my

fingerprints scanned. So he went to the counter and confirmed with VO. Then he asked me to go to counter 12 to the other building and get fingerprints scanned. I went

there, got scanned and came back to interview building immediately. I gave documents to same helper guy and he submitted it to VO and directly asked me to stay in

counter 21 queue. One candidate was waiting in front of me. But VO saw me and asked to come first. At this time, I thought she'll again ask me some questions but she

just took passports and one I129 form and returned me two copies of it. And said your visa is approved and will get it in 7 working days.

ME: Thank you so muach mam. Have a great day and left the place immediately.

No questions to my wife.
