L1A Individual Experience (Approved)
Booking an appointment - There is generally a 45 days to 60 days waiting period for appointment slot so plan your appointment accordingly.
VAC Visit: VAC visit is a breeze. Documents needed : (DS 160, Appointment Confirmation and Fee Receipt) nothing else is required for VAC Visit.
VAC Experience: They just take your photographs and fingerprints thats it.
You are not required to take any photograph with you neither for the VAC nor for the interview. There are mix responses online so thought should clarify this. I took mine along and they came back as it is.
Consulate Experience
Reached an hour before the interview slot and to my surprise consulate was actually letting people in for people who had interview timing till mine slot.
Mobiles and any other kind of electronic devices are not allowed, there is a paid booth outside the consulate (Rs. 50 charge per mobile) for storing. I skipped to avoid the hassle.
Everything is very organized and clear instructions are provided for all the procedures.
Coming to interview experience.
VO Officer: Asks for passports.
VO: Asks for I797
VO: How long have you worked with this company?
VO: Which location are you working at?
VO: What's your salary at your company?
VO: Okay, which location you will be going to?
VO: What will be your job responsibilities?
VO: How many direct reportees you have?
VO: How many direct reportees in your US profile.
VO: Before this company where were you working?
VO: What was your role in that company?
VO: Where did you do your masters from?
VO: When did u two get married?
VO: Do you have a marriage certificate?
VO: Looking at the certificate, so this is the legal marriage, was there a big celebration?
Showed her a big wedding album we had.
VO: (To me) So will you be working for any client?
VO: Your visa has been approved
This was where I took a sigh of relief :)
My outlook, the purpose of the interview is to check whether whatever has been filed in the petition is correct, the consulate office also judges your confidence and command.
Status Changed to Administrative Processing on the same day.
Status Changed to Issued on the next working day.
Passport ready for pickup the day after.
I have to commend the consulate for their efficient process.
This forum helped me get clarity on lot of things and I would like to thank all the members for their contribution.
