H1B revalidation: Booking appointment thru VFS

[blrmaani]

Dear all,
I am revalidating my H1B and planning to get an appointment at Chennai.

Question:
After paying $100 each for all my family members ( H1B for myself and
H4 for my wife and daughter ) do I need to book seperate appointment
for all 3 of them thru VFS website or is it sufficient if I do it for myself
and my wife and daughter will be included as part of my appointment?

My parents also would like to travel with me.If my parents would also
like to get appointment for the same day as
myself is it possible to get appointment for the same day?

any help will be greatly appreciated
thanks
Blr

You, your wife and children should go for the same appointment - you for H1B and the others for H4. Your parents will have to make another appointment for B2 category. It is very difficult that while making appointments, you will have a choice of having all appointments on the same date and that too in Chennai!
