Wrong Visa stamped on Passport
Hi,
I am currently very worried and streesed. I went for H1B interview via BEP program on 24th July to New Delhi Embassy. After the usual questions, as mentioned in this blog, the Visa Officer approved my H1B. She said I will receive the passport in 3-5 Business Days. On 29th July, I received my passport with B1 Visa stamped on it. I was SHOCKED. My travel was planned on 3rd August, and here I receive B1 visa stamped. My Manager was SHOCKED to see this.
The Visa department of my company asked me toprovide them the orignal I-797B approval form and 2 photos, and they will send back the passport to Embassy for Visa correction. later, they sent the passport to embassy/VFS for Visa correction on 31st july.

I was extremely worried and want toknow how much time embassy takesto correcxt such type of errros. How can the embassy do such type of blunder? Has any of you experienced or heard about such issue before? Any advice or help will be useful.
