H1b stamping and Port of Entry experience
Hello everyone,
I've been following the immihelp h1b visa experience thread since one month as I was planning my trip to India. So I
would like to share my experience as well. I went to India begining of this month (Feb), I needed to do H1B extension
stamping this time with a new employer. I found out that I was eligible for the Dropbox option and during that time there
were many rumours saying Dropbox option has been cancelled which was false. So after reaching India, the next day I went
to Mumbai Visa Consulate to submit my docs in the Dropbox option. They asked for the required docs and within 3 days my
passport was ready for pick up with a new Visa stamp.
While returning to US at the port of entry I found that things were going on as usual, the question asked to me by the
CBP officer were :
Q) Do you still work for the same company(on noticing my new Visa Stamp) ?
Ans. Yes
Q) What are the food items you are carrying with you?
Ans. I listed the food items which I carried with me.
After that he took my fingerprints and stamped my passport. So I would like to say, just act normal;, confident and don't
panic due to those ongoing rumours.
All the best!
