H1B Stamping Approved F1 to H1B Vancouver
Hello All,
This forum helped me to be prepared for my visa stamping. Here is my visa experience at Vancouver.
My first H1B stamping, F1 to H1B:
Me: GM Officer
VO: Morning, Give me passport and 797.
Me: Gave my passport+797.
VO: Where do you work?
Me: I work for ****
VO: Whats your company do?
Me: mentioned about my company (2 lines)
VO: How long you are with your current employer?
Me: 6 years
VO: What;s your job title?
Me: mentioned whatever is on my I-129 petition.
VO: Do you have master's degree?
Me: Yes
VO finally said, your visa is approved and will be ready to pick-up in 3-5 days.
I am now waiting for my passport, hopefully I get it without any surprises.
Note: I was tensed about my interview like everyone, there were 221-G's issued to 3-4 people, who were interviewed before me. I work full-time and my employer is not H1 dependent, so think that helped me along with my luck and 1-month preparation.
Observations:
I did see people with not so good responses to the asked questions. some are leaning on to the window or providing more information than asked or coming with casual attire. Also just give what VO asks DO NOT PROVIDE EXTRA INFORMATION unless it is explaining something about cases-past status etc.
Look into VO's eyes and try to smile, when you are at the window you can't do anything other than smiling and showing how confident you are about the interview.
Good luck to you all.
