Dropbox in Delhi 13th Feb : DONE

Hello all

Just updating everyone on today's status. Just dropped off all my docs at the Delhi Dropbox location. Barely took 10 minutes in the whole process. No questions asked! Only problem is that if you get a photo clicked in USA at CVS or Walgreens etc, it ll most likely not be accepted here but every location has a small market around and u can instantly get photos !

Can't say how many days it ll take to get back the passport but the process went without headache! Thanks to all who regularly updated this thread and provided helpful information and morale boosting experiences

Good luck!

INTERVIEW WAIVER PROGRAM CHECKLIST – H1,H4 & L2
If you can answer “yes” to all of the following questions, you may qualify for the Interview Waiver Program.
Eligibility Criteria:
• Do you have a previous H-1B visa (temporary occupation, temporary worker or trainee)?

• Prior H1B visa (temporary occupation, temporary worker or trainee) was not annotated “Clearance Received” or “Department Authorization”?

• H-1B (temporary occupation, temporary worker or trainee) visa was not refused earlier?

• Is your previous H-1B visa (temporary occupation, temporary worker or trainee) still valid?

• Did your previous H-1B visa (temporary occupation, temporary worker or trainee) expire within the last 12 months?

• Was your most recent H-1B visa (temporary occupation, temporary worker or trainee) issued in India after January 1, 2008?
Note: F/M visa interview applicants must submit their original I-20 form and J visa interview waiver applicants must submit their original DS-2019 form along with their passport.
• If I am applying for a B1/B2, C1D, or J visa, my prior visa in the same classification is still valid or expired within the last 48 months; OR
• If I am applying for an F visa, my prior visa in the same classification and same Academic Institution is still valid or expired within the last 48 months; OR

Note: Using the interview waiver or drop-box service does not guarantee visa issuance. In some cases, you may be required to appear for a visa interview at the U.S. Embassy/Consulate, for example, if you submit an incomplete and/or inaccurate application. Submit your application well in advance of your planned travel to allow for the possibility that a visa interview will be necessary.

Very Smooth dropbox Process in Chennai

Did dropbox in Feb13th in Chennai.
Asked for DS160 confirmation and Dropbox confirmation letter along with current I797 A copy. They did also ask for old copy of I797As. I said I only have original and not a copy of those documents. They said it's fine and did not take any document from me.

Passport ready for pickup on Feb16th.
