Visa Interview experience @ Chennai, Dec 13th
I had initially scheduled for visa interview on Dec 5th and got cancelled due to situation at Chennai. I had to reschedule for Dec 13th, 10 AM. We reached the consulate by 8:15 AM and we were allowed inside without any delay due to previous day cyclone in Chennai.
Lobby assistant informed that they are not following any time slots on 13th. On the first counter, i was asked to give my passport and approved petition. Once done, moved to next counter for verifying the biometrics. Then we were asked to line up on the main counter. Had to wait for 10-15 mins before our turn. The previous two applicants visa were rejected and I was next in the line and was pretty confident. He called me to come over.
Good Morning!
- Who is your employer?
- How long have you been working for your employer?
- Who is your client?
- Where is it located?
- What difference you noticed between the client location and current location?
- How long have you been with this client?
- Do you have client letter?
(was talking to nearby officer by showing something on the computer. I think the system might be slow. He thanked me for the patience, as he took 3 minutes discussing )
- When did you come to India?
- Where is the employer-employee relationship? I don't see the employer name in the client letter?
I told i have implementation partner/vendor in between and showed the letter given by them...
reading the entire letter for 5 minutes
- Do you have a middle vendor?
- Do you have the letter from the vendor?
- So are you on EVC model?
(Kept reading all the letters and started typing something continuously for 3 minutes)
- Mam (to my wife), is AAAA is your home town?
- When did you get married?
- How many kids do you have?
- Are they US Citizens?
Finally, your Visa is approved...and gave me the right to information.
If you are on EVC model, please make sure you have letters from all the stakeholders and be confident when you respond to VO. Also, if the previous applicant's visa get rejected, do not panic. Each case is different.
Easily it took 15 minutes for me at the interview.
Hope this info helps!
