L1, L2 Visa

This site was of immense help for me when i was preparing for my Visa. In my office ( Leading American Bank ) apart from main document, every step has to be done by only by me with out any assistance. No immigration team at offshore too. So i had to ask many folks and read many forums before proceeding to each and every process. So for a person like me, this site has been immense help. But negative thing is u will feel the heat if you go through each ones experience. Remember one thing, this is not the end of the road and we can still live a happy life where ever u r. Dont make situation to take control of you. Let me share my experience.

Biometrics : Appointment at 9:15. Reached the venue by 8:15 and to my surprise they let me in. All the process got over with in 15 mins. I could see many folks who came with their family had only one DS160. Remember you need DS160 for each individual.

VO Appointment : Scheduled date at 9:00 AM. I reached the venue by 8:30. They made us to stand in queue and since i had a Kid ( below 5 yrs ) they let me in soon. Guys if you have a kid, pls take them with you. You can skip some serious wait time. The heat too one unbearable. As soon as we stepped in a person asked us to arrange the docs as per L1B blanket norms. 8 pages I129S, 1 page, I797, DS160 confirmation page ( Primary app ), DD. If you are going for L1 B visa, Pls arrange this set at home itself. It may avoid some confusion there. Again we skipped the queue and went directly to get the receipt of DD. Then our finger print scanned and we went directly to main interview. All this process took 15 mins.

VO : See iam not aware of ur process and dont even have an account. So can you pls explain in simple terms on what work you will do in US.

Me : Explain Products i will work on

VO : Looked Convinced and Stamped the docs. I knew he will approve

VO : Kept 1 copy and passports and asked whether all 3 will be travelling.

Me : Yes sir

VO : I have approved your Visa

Me : Thank you

Your company reputation is the key here guys and secondly you salary and the way you present your explanation in interview. I have seen some folks getting rejected as they were not able to explain clearly ( Not sure is it the exact reason ). Be bold as i said before. Dont take situation to take control of you. Coz if you are not good at handling pressure, then you are loosing out urself. All the best guys. Hope this might have helped.
