H1B Stamping | 9 Nov @Chennai
Hi All,

My sincere thanks to all the people that are linked here with this forum and thought necessary to share their stamping experience.

I am sharing my experience as well:

Biometric: All fine (simple process)

Consulate Interview:
----------------------------
Interview was scheduled at 12:00 reached at 11:30 and started the queue. As i was accompanied by my wife and 3.5 years son i was asked to skip the queue and enter directly. First window for scanning the passport sticker pasted by biometric and our finger prints and was asked to join counter no 18. At Counter no 18, She took the passports, pasted a baby sticker on my son's passport and verified something (not sure) and asked to join the main queue (Interview).

At the main queue they did see one of my family passport has a baby sticker he did not ask me to join the queue but directed me to one of the immediate available counters for interview.
