Well..I am really glad that I found this website..it was so useful for me. Anyways who has gone to the US consulate would know what kind of nerve wrecking experience and such a forum, which provides so much guidance, is really need. Thanks to the guys who share there experiences and those who patiently answers all those queries..
Well to my experience now..
I saw this forum just a week before my visa appt. However I found the check list and also how important client documentation was..So I ensured I have all that stuff..One mistake I made was that I did not check my petition forms thoroughly..There can be mistakes in those too...
My interview was at 9.45am, when I got into the consulate, but I did not get called till 12.30 or so. My interview with officer was pretty brief..
Officer: can you give me your degree certificates..
Me: I gave them.
Officer: is your company client based or product based.
Me: client based
Officer: What kind of work will you be doing.
Me: started explaining that.
[He was checking the documents meanwhile and suddenly asked..]
Officer: where is this attachment?
[ I-129 forms have a H-classfication supplement for H visa and in this form, candidates expertise and job duties are supplied. My forms however said "refer to the attachment" and this was missing]
Me: searched for it and produced some letter which was sent to me by my employer.
Officer: This is not it.
Me: Apologised and said I could not find it.
Officer: OK. you will have to come back. I cannot issue you a visa now.
He gave me a 221g where he wanted "the missing attachment" and "client info" and also ticked the drop box option.
It took me a while to gather the required info and then I gave the documents in the VFS dropbox office. I gave all the documents which were requested in the 221g letter. For Client info, I provided a contract order between my employer and a client company. (A fax copy). And two weeks later, I recieved my visa.
One thing I noticed while in consulate was there were so many people being refused and simply because they were not prepared well. Some forgot degree cert originals. Some forgot client details..so on. I feel that we ought to give more attention to interview preparation. Sites like immihelp help a lot. And once you have good documentation, there is no reason to be worried about refusal.
Thanks once again immihelp.
