V.O: Typing ..Ok I am approving your visa. Have a nice day. He stamped on my petition and said - Though I will need to keep your passport and one petition. Here are your copies.

He handed me over two copies of petition, stamped approved and valid till. No questions asked to wife or kid. I greeated him a good day and ran :P

It was a overall good experience , Though I was tensed too much reading stories of high l1b Blanket rejection

Attire: I wore formals - white checked Shirt, formal trousure - No watch ,clean shaved, black belt and shoes. Spouse wore normal indian churidhar.
Documents : Carried all supporting Doc - Company letter, Salary cert, marriage photos, degree documents, marriage cert. But Nothing was verified.

When on the Queue I saw people with all sort of attire, from jeans to new fashionalbles - So I believe, thats not a factor when issuing or rejecting. You need to practice well and be confident, and believe in the God, be honest in answering the questions and it will be yours before you can even realise. We were out in 15 minutes, with smile in face. Now waiting for my passport to be collected.
