Spelling difference of parents' name in passport and birth certificate
My wife will be filing for her EAD. She is required to fill her parents' name in the form I-765. I have a query regarding this.
There is a difference in the spelling of her parents' name in her birth certificate and passport.
Mother's name:
Name in Birth Certificate: Shanta Chakrabarty
Name in Passport: Santa Chakraborty
I would like to know what would be more appropriate- to use the spelling as mentioned in the birth certificate or the passport.
I would appreciate any suggestions.
PS: We already have an affidavit which says that the names are one and the same and it is just a variation in spelling.

Hyderabad consulate - H1B interview experience
Biometrics: 23 Sep, 2019
Interview: 24 Sep, 2019 @10am
Metro station is very near to the consulate, so used metro service and reached the location by @9.30 and immediately the security guard allowed me in. Taken a small umbrella with me as it was cloudy, but had to keep in locker for Rs.50 as security didn't allow it in.
1. Security check
2. Waited in the waiting area for few minutes along with 20-30 other people
3. Joined a queye and got the finger prints verified
4. Waited again in the waiting area for few more minutes
5. Joined a queue where I was given a card with window number mentioned on it
The staff member took my passport and passed it to the VO even before my turn came.
Interview:
- Good morning (scanning my passport)
- Tell me about your job duties
- Work location
- Client location or Employer location?
- Do you work for <Client company> or <Employer company>?
- Salary?
- Is it extension or a new one?
- How long were you in US before?
- (After typing for a few seconds) I am approving your visa, have a good day :)
Overall it was a pleasant experience, didn't see any rejections. No documentation asked at all.
All the best for you all. Thanks to everyone who are sharing their experiences here.

Consular Processing - F1 TO H-1B TRANFER
Hi all,
I have a H-1B visa interview setup for November in New Delhi. I was working on OPT, OPT Stem and then CPT for the same employer, full time (no client).
I am just wondering if there is something I can do proactively to clear my SEVIS record or something to prevent myself from getting any 221g -Administrative processing delays.
Can someone please help ?
You can directly email me if you have any input at [email protected]
Thanks,
Ankita.

H1 interview
Hello everyone!
I had my visa interview done yesterday in Hyderabad. Interviewer asked me basic questions like below. At the end of the interview, she took my passport and said, you don’t have anything to do, but there is some administrative processing/verification that I have to do and we will let you know in 2 days. Interviewer didn’t even give me any slip. And I checked status online this morning and it shows as Administrative processing. Should I contact my attorney and let them know what’s going on? Or should I wait until tomorrow and wait to hear something? Also should I worried? How long would this process take? This is first time visa stamping. F1 to H1.
1. Who’s your client?
2. Where do you work at? And did you ever work for that company here in India?
3. Highest education?
4. Whether that highest education is from US? Or India?
5. Do you have your recent paystub?
6. Did you have any problems receiving your pay?
7. Do you know about your worker rights?
8. How long are you working for this company?
Interviewer didn’t even ask my 1-797A letter.
Anyone had same experience?
Any responses will be much appreciated.

CEAC visa status checking website down??
Based on my understanding CEAC website for checking visa status is down from Saturday, September 21. I keep entering the CAPTCHA code but it does not work.
Has anyone faced the same issue? Is there any alternate method of checking visa status?
Please let me know.
Thanks

H1b stamping
Hi folks,
I have attended the visa interview recently. And consulate office asked me easy questions from the ds160 and I answered all of them. But he asked me about internship after my masters wether it is paid or unpaid. I never expected that question from him and I said NO. But the entire interview went well. And he put the passport with him and didn’t ask any documents from my side. Gave me a 221g white slip where he checked in first box. So is there any problem with it and does it takes long period of time to get my visa approval.
Thanks
