H1B, H4 Visa

Hi ,
First thanks to this forum and members for sharing experience. So I am doing same. :)

In my case I got refusal for my B1 visa a year before so I am worried about same. I prepared for all questions regarding refusal and cause of refusal. But thankfully VO doesn’t ask a single question on that.
So RELAX there is no such relation between your previous refusals and H1 visa.

I prepared for this interview as all of us doing; so below is my experience about two days of Visa process

Day 1: My time 3pm OFC
I went at OFC in morning by 8:30am and they allowed me to enter and within 2 minutes my process of photo & fingerprints completed and I am out by 8:35am. ?
   •They just stamp your interview letter and verify DS 160 confirmation page with Passport
   •Before photo & fingerprints they stick Barcode at backside of passport i.e used to enter in center for next day
As I understand the appointment for OFC are schedule afternoon but they allowed completing process in first come first serve basis. So better you go early and compete this simple process and use your remaining time for FINAL exam preparation i.e. consular appointment.

Day 2: My time 10am
I reached at center by 7:45am, they verified passport and scanned barcode number and allowed to enter in building. As all you know no electronics allowed they just check pockets and scan bags (plastics) and ask to move to waiting area, here they verify your visa type and ask to take only require papers outside with passport. I have to wait for 1 hour as some of previous appointments are still in progress. After an hour by 10 am I enter in consulate main building and they stick the token number to passport front side.

Now they take our fingerprint again for verification and our turn to wait for token number to display on TV screen. This is the time were I can heard my heartbeats and those are almost doubled, after 30 minutes my token number displayed and I went to that window and waiting for my turn, VO is young and very friendly so I am little bit RELAX. Now My turn

Me: Good morning
VO: Good morning

VO: Passport
Me: Passed passport

VO: Pointed to my File and asked I-797 page
Me: Passed same

VO: Which company are you working?
ME:@@@@

VO: Who is your client?
Me: $$$$$

VO: How long you are working with your current company?
Me: * year * month

VO: How long you are working for your current client?
Me: * year * month

VO: What is your salary?
Me: $$$$ per annum

VO: What is your highest qualification?
Me: ^^^^^^

VO: Are you married?
Me: **** *

VO: Is your spouse coming with you?
Me: **** *

That’s It. Time for Golden words.

VO : Ok. I am approving your visa.
Me: thank you ?

VO: Pointed to Know your rights pages and told read this before you reach to USA.
Me : Sure thank you . Have a nice day. ?

Some of point I want to mention:
-Be specific to your answers
-Use formals if you are going for work/Business visa & office ID card
-Be prepared as we always do for exam ?
-Speak slowly so that VO can understand your accent
-Do not give descriptive answers to questions this will open new questions in VO mind
- There is no such requirement about your documents files need to be transparent; you can carry any type files or folder with documents. (For transparent look I brought 3 files :) )

BEST OF LUCK …

Hope this will help.

Cheers,
Amit
