Stamping Process at Chennai US consulate for transferred visa
Hi,
I changed from employer A to B on H1B (H1B got approved for B when i started working for B). The visa stamp on my passport was for A and it got expired by 2013 Feb, but my visa from B is valid till 2015.
Now I'm planning to visit India for 10 days in a month from now. I have some questions
1. Am i eligible for the interview waiver program?
Details: Company A processed my first Visa at India in 2012 Feb (Valid till 2013 Feb), and I worked with company A till August 2012. From August 2012 I've been with B, but dont have new stamping
2. My travel dates are 1 month from now and I'm going to be in Chennai for about 10 days. So given this, can i go ahead and book my onward and return tickets safely assuming that i will get interview dates?
3. I'm filling up my DS160 in a few days from now, so I'll select my visa dates 1 week from now for September first week, do i have chances of getting one?
4. Where do we check interview availability for Chennai?
5. The new site gives me an appointment wait time of 3 days, what does that mean?
6. Company B is a big internet/tech company in silicon valley so can i safely assume that i wont have problems in the interview/stamping process?
7. What questions would they generally ask for?
Thanks and regards,
Venkatesh
