Section 221(g)
I had my visa interview on 14th October 2009 at Chennai. The Visa Officer asked me whether I was issued a H1B earlier and I replied "Yes". The point to note here is that I have not travelled on the earlier H1. He also asked about my academic qualification, total IT experience, my previous company, my role in the U.S and the client name.
I explained my role in the U.S and gave the client name as YYYY . I also mentioned that I will be working for the client from the employer ZZ office. He then asked for the I-129 and the LCA. He said everything was fine but then he wanted some more details from my employer. He gave me a letter under Section 221(g). I was a bit taken aback as I was expecting the golden words "Visa approved" unfortunately that didn't happen.
 
I immediately sent the contents of the letter to my employer. I received the documents and submitted them on 29th October 2009 at VFS center, Hyderabad. I was in for a pleasant surprise when I received the courier on 5th November and found my H1 visa stamped on 3rd November.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank immihelp.com for their dedicated website. Also special thanks to those people who have shared their experiences. So people who have got a letter under Section 221(g), please don't lose hope.
 
Regards,
Ashith.
