L1B Individual Approved @ Chennai
Dear All,
Thank you sharing your experience which helped to a great extent.
I like to share my experience as well.
In 2014, I have applied for L1B Blanket at Chennai Consulate and was rejected. I was not sure of the reason but I guess my experience was 3 years and it could have been a reason. Though I was able to show my Special skill in our company methodology, I did not clear the interview. I was asked 16 questions at the time of interview which included 6-7 technical questions. After my rejection, I did not apply for L1B individual.
In 2017, I applied for B1/B2, which is a business visa and I was asked 1 question during this time. "Where will you be travelling".
In 2018, I applied for L1B, this time Individual. From my past learning and experience I wrote my documents to the best of my knowledge showcasing my skills and specialised knowledge and my experience of 7 years with my company methodologies. My documents got cleared without any RFE. It was not a premium process, but still the petition was approved within 30 days.
At Chennai Consulate:
Arriving 15 minutes before is sufficient. My slot was at 9.30am and I could finish my interview by 12.15pm only. It was a long wait. Anyway drinking water, restrooms are available to keep yourself fresh.
Questions:
1. Both the passport are yours?
2. Which category you are applying for?
3. L1A or L1B?
4. Who is your petitioner?
5. Which place you will be travelling?
6. What is your salary?
7. Are you married or single?
She checked my old passport and typed something on the system. (I guess my Business visit travel).
She then told, "I'm approving your visa" and gave back my old passport.
On the same day status was showing "Administrative Processing", then next day it changed as "Issued" and then passport was delivered.
If you really own specialised skill then its important how you project it out. Luck might be a factor, but I believe how you prepare yourself is the key. Be honest with your answer. I was rejected in 2014 and I have to wait 4 years to get a chance again.
Hope it helps.
Thank you all and Goodluck!
