L1A blanket approved on 21st March @ Chennai
Thanks to each one of you who has posted your experience. It has been very helpful to me. I have been an active visitor to this forum for last 4-6 weeks.
I have about 17yrs experience, have been US earlier on H1 and L1A.
Now coming to my experience. My OFC was scheduled in Hyderabad on 18th. I went for OFC alongwith spouse and child. Hyderabad center was fairly well managed and we finished the biometrics & photo in about 15mins.
We then travelled to Chennai on 20th evening for visa appointment. We decided to keep our kids at one of our friend's place. Both my wife and I went in to Chennai consulate at about 945am for 10am appointment. To our surprise we saw tons of people standing in line outside the consulate even though their appointments were scheduled for later in the day. It took us about 1.5hrs wait in the scorching Chennai heat before we were allowed into the gates. My suggestion, don't take your kids if you don't have to. I saw lot of parents struggling with young kids and kids were dehydrated, irritated, etc.
Anyway once we went in, it took us about another 10mins or so for pre-appointment document checks and fee payment. Just as we were settling down in some cool air waiting for our appointment, we saw our number flash on the screen. I went in confidently with my spouse.
I was asked about 3-4 questions.
a. Who is your current company- XYZ
b. Are you going to work at client site - No
c. where is your office in US - XYZ
d. how many people report to you - XYZ
I could see that after the 1st question, VO had started stamping my documents and he was asking other questions more to keep some conversation going. Finally after about 2 mins of interaction, he approved our visa. He did not ask my spouse any question.
Key points to note
a. Be confident about you and your job.
b. Dress smartly and appropriate to the weather. Some folks come in overly dressed with suit, tie, etc...In Chennai summer and the given the 2 hr waiting outside the consulate, trust me, you will feel very tired and sweaty when you go in front of VO
c. Do go over some of the questions posted by others on this forum.
d. If you are qualified for the visa category, chances of rejection are very minimal
e. Maintain a conversation style with the VO and be relaxed. Don't get tensed. This is not rocket science.
good luck to all
