221g blue slip issued @ chennai consulate for H1B case
I had my visa interview @ Chennai on 28 and was issued a 221g blue slip with no documents highlighted in it. I currently works for an MNC and my new employer is a small company in US. I would have been part of their in-house mobile products.
During interview, VO collected my project documents and offer letter and asked me to wait. I waited for 4 hours and got a phone call at their office. One lady asked me whether I have my employer’s tax returns which I didn’t have. I waited for another 1.5 hours and finally issued a 221g blue slip. VO returned all documents including my passport and gave US rights pamphlets as a consolation.
When informed, my employer said I could have given the second project details and the job responsibility letter also. He is not sure about what went wrong and said will get back from his attorney.
My wife had already traveled US last week on her H1B thinking I will join her soon. Now someone please help me with any details; in fact assist me to decide what’s next in my life.
1. Will 221g candidates get visa, especially when your passport is returned?
2. Why didn’t they ticked/checked any documents in the 221g? How will we know which document they need?
3. How long will it take for completing administrative processing?
4. If it takes months, can I travel on H4 and change to H1 in US once it is approved?
Please help me.
Thank you all and my sincere wishes to all who are going to attend the visa interview.
