221(g) whiteslip Mumbai Consulate 02 Dec 2015
Hello All,
I attended my H1B stamping interview at Mumbai consulate on 2 dec 2015. Below is my exp -
VO: Which employer
ME: told
VO: What do you do for employer
ME: Told
VO: Salary in USD
ME: Told
VO: Highest qualification
ME: Told
VO: Married?
ME: Yes
VO: Is she not travelling with you?
ME: No. Not this time.
Then the VO typed something in his system took my i797 inside. He was back in a minute with a copy of i797. He handed me 221(g) white slip saying that there is some issue in the system. He Kept my passport with him and said that I will be notified over email about next steps.
Some background on my case -
I have done my Masters in US and also worked with the same employer for over 2 years on EAD. My wife already has L1 visa from a different employer in India which was the reason i said no to VO.
Can someone help me understand the 221(g) process. I know that it can take months to get a result. Has anybody had a good experience in similar situation? I am quite perplexed as mine is a genuine application.
