All,
I would have hardly imagined that I would end up in spending most of my last week time in a valuable site like this and thanking it profusely.
I got into the consulate on time and avoided any hassles. Waited for 30 minutes before I was called into the main visa lobby. Got into the queue and saw few rejections that were happing in front of me. I was called then:
--------------------------------------------
Me: Hi, Good Morning!
VO: Good Morning, can I have the documents please?
Me: Sure, here it is!
VO: Can you please put your right index finger on the scanner please
Me: Sure (I did so)
VO: Who is your client?
Me: Morgan Stanley
VO: Can you explain your project
Me: blah, blah ( I started explaining)
VO: stop (prompted me to stop)
Me: I did so
VO: (Started referring my passport) So, you initially travelled on H1B?
Me: No, I did not. I had H1B earlier, however due to my project requirement my work location got moved to Toronto. So, I worked from Canada and did not use this H1B.Also, when I went to US on a business trip from Canada I was given B1 Visa, however my existing H1B was cancelled.
VO: Where did they cancel the visa?
Me: In Toronto Consulate
VO: Did you work for the same client in Toronto?
Me: Yes
VO: Oh ok. So, why did your employer not applying H1B for you again
Me: This time I am going on a specialized skill.
VO: Ok, can you explain your specialized skill?
Me: blah, blah ( I started explaining elaborately)
VO: (prompted me to stop) You are giving me a very broad picture, can you explain your role shortly?
Me: I explain my specialized skill crisply in three sentences. (He was listening very very carefully on what I was saying and was making eye-to-eye contact to assess my confidence)
VO: (He got fully satisfied on what I explained) Ok, your visa is approved. You will get your passport in a week time.
Me: Thank you.
---------------------------------------------
Few suggestions:
Do not get scared by the rejections of other people. Visa approvals purely depends on how well/bad you do.
Dress elegantly. It matters a lot.
Cheers and all the best.
