H1B - Approved HYD Consulate
Hi All,
I have applied for H1B for the first time this year and chose HYDERABAD for OFC and Interview.
Dec 8th Friday - 11:00 AM OFC Appointment. Came out by 11.30AM
The security at HYD will allow you inside 15min prior to your appointment. You need to carry only 3 documents for this.
1. Passport ( All if you have multiple ).
2. DS-160 Confirmation Page
3. Appointment Confirmation
They will just verify the details on your DS-160 with the Passport, if there is a mismatch in any field you can modify your form just outside for 100 Rs/- and then go back for fingerprints. You can go directly to the office without being in line if you modify. No electronics allowed inside ( even mobiles )
Dec 11th Monday - 09:00 AM Interview. Came out by 9:15AM
The security will allow you inside 30min before your appointment. Please don't carry any electronic equipment, you can use lockers outside to store your belongings if no family member accompanied you.
The interview was smooth and short. There are around 4-5 counters which will look like some railway booking center where interviews happen simultaneously. Please try to focus and not worry about whats going on in other counters. The guy just before me for was F-1 for which VO asked lot of questions before approving.
My interview : VO was a young female, she approved 2 VISAs just before me. She asked the following questions without asking for any documents except my I-797 which was passed to her by some guy in that counter.
Q1) How long have you been working with your petitioner YYYY ?
Q2) Is it a client location or petitioner's location ?
Q3) What will your be salary in US ?
Q4) Where will you be working at? ( City, State )
Q5) Have you read the white pamphlet given by staff ?
VO then said your VISA is approved or something ( I couldn't hear properly though I understood what she meant ). She told have a nice day and kept the passport. Total interview time : 1min.
Case Status :
Dec 8th : Case Created
Dec 11th : Admin Processing, PP Status : Still with Embassy
Dec 12th : Issued , PP Status : Still with Embassy
Dec 13th 12PM PP Status : Getting ready for delivery 2PM : Ready for pick-up
Dec 14th 10AM : Collected Passport with VISA stamped. They ask for ID Card if the applicant himself is collecting, else you need an authorization letter.
The process was very smooth and fast, I was very fortunate that it did not get delayed. This forum was very helpful for my preparation. I wish everyone gets their VISA as early as possible. Best of luck everyone. Thanks to all.
