L1B Approved - Chennai
Hello everyone,

I want to thank this forum immensely, my L1B visa got approved and here is my experience:

OFC - My appointment was a day before the visa, we had arrived the previous evening to chennai, as suggested on the forum took an Uber to the OFC office. It was an uneventful trip, we went 45mins early and waited in queue. Once we were let through the process was smooth no hitches.

Now the interesting part :)

I work for a very famous US based product company and I know almost all L1 applications by my company has gone through. This thought gave me a lot of confidence before the interview and the attorneys handling my case (although very busy initially) really outshined in the application details and prep work before the interview. These factors plus a good salary gave me a lot of confidence.

Consulate:
We arrived at 9:15 for an appointment of 10AM, only to find big queues. After checking of docs, we were asked to wait in the final queue to enter the consulate. Long queues but they were moving fast, so after document checks and DD submission, we were asked to wait at the final line.

Our VO was nice, it looked like his day was going great :), finally it was our turn:

M: Good morning sir.
VO: A very good morning to you as well.

VO: which company do you work for?
M: I work for YYYY India company which is an Indian subsdidary of YYYY

VO: who will you be working for in US?
M: I will be working for the parent company YYYY

VO: what will you be doing there?
M: I will be working on YYYY platform and ZZZZ enabling it to expand operations globally.

VO: what is your specialisation?
M: My spec is in an YYYY product and its system for enabling A1 and A2

VO: what will be your salary?
M: My salary will be ZZZ,ZZZ(upwards of 130)

VO: How long will you be in US?
M: 3yrs

Turns to my wife:
VO: Ma'am, How long have you been married?
Wife: 3yrs now sir.

VO: Will you be joining you husband in US?
Wife: Yes sir

He took a long pause at this time and starting typing into his computer.

After that, I hear the golden words!!

VO: I am approving your visa, enjoy your stay in United States.
M & Wife: Thank you sir.

I strongly felt that if you are from a US based product company and have a good salary, there is a very high chance of your visa being approved. Keep clam, stay focussed, be very confident in your answers and smile a little :)

Thank you immihelp!!!
