Got H1B & H4
Hi Guys,
I had appointment on 10th Aug 2005. Before going to interview was reading this site and was very useful so thought of sharing my experience here.
I had appointment for me (H1B), my wife (H4) and my kid (H4) on Aug 10th at 11:45. We reached consulate 30 minutes before. In the entrance they verified the appointment and passports. After this there is a security check once the security check is done you can go inside where you need to pay the Rs. 441 DD to TTS guys. They will give you token. Then proceed to first counter where need to give both Rs. 4400 and Rs 2200 DD and passport. He verifies all and give back Rs. 2200 DD, passport and receipt for Rs. 4400 DD. Ask you to stand in any counter next to him. There are four counters. That guy will verify your DS forms, I797, I129, Labor Condition Application, Marriage certificate, birth certificate, marriage photos etc. puts in a file and asked you to go to next building.
Next building hall is called Visa lobby There you need to give your token. You will be called for finger print in token order. Once your finger print is done you need to wait for your token number to be called for interview.
My interview was very short. The guy looked very young. He asked me just five straight questions.
1. What is your experience?
2. Asked for my work experience certificates.
3. Where is the head quarter of this company?
4. Where will you be working?
5. Who is the client?
6. How long will you be there in USA?
I am going through the same company I am working in India there. Also since my company is product company I mentioned there is no client and will be working in my company itself.
He didn’t ask any single question to my wife.
He verified marriage, birth certificates, marriage photos and work experience. Then asked us to pay the visa fee in counter 1 and told "Have a safe journey" :-).
I received the passports with visa for all three of us on 12th Aug.
It was very cool. Attend the interview with confident and cool.
You can take food and madicine for your kid inside.
All the best for all of you going for stamping.

I got the H1BVisa
I posted a mail on july 28th about the peculiar experience i got from the chennai consulate.Iam very happy to say that i got the H1B visa yesterday.
He asked me about the project iam going to work on and who are the potential clients? and why i need a 2 years visa when the company says its a 6-9 months project?
From my experience, most of the people along with me are facing problem when the officer is asking the following questions. I think these are the key questions.(this is just my view)
1.About the project u r going to work there.
U should know the project name which u r going to work in U.S.Insist ur company to give the project details, because the officer will not beleive you unless u say the project name and its duration.
2. Why do u want to leave the current job?
I got a better opportunity there compared to this job. This experience will help me a lot when i return to india.(I think this makes sure for the officer, that u intend to come back)
3.If u say, i will work for this particular client,U must be ready to produce a letter from client stating that?
And always think that the Officer wants you to got to U.S., because there arent enough skilled workers there.
All the best and some luck too.
