I am working in US as a FTE for an American firm on a L2EAD. My employer applied h1b and I got it approved last week. However my COS from L2 to H1 was denied. The reason attorney provided was , I travelled to India for vacation when my h1b was in progress. My question is will I face any issues due to this during my stamping in India, also what are the necessary documents in need to carry to India while going for stamping

Dropbox H1B Visa Stamping
Hi,
I went to Delhi's location for dropping documents for my H1B Visa Stamping. I am still waiting on Administrative Processing status. I am still not contacted by anyone yet on email or phone. I checked with customer service too, they dont have any update either. Any idea?
Sept 3, Dropped Document at 9.30 AM, and around 11 AM, got the status - Delivered To Post.
Sept 4, Case Created status
Sept 5, Administrative Processing
Sept 6, No Update
Sept 7, Saturday
Sept 8, Sunday
Sept 9, Stil waiting on the same status as below.
Your visa case is currently undergoing necessary administrative processing. This processing can take several weeks. Please follow any instructions provided by the Consular Officer at the time of your interview. If further information is needed, you will be contacted. If your visa application is approved, it will be processed and mailed/available within two business days.
I want to remain positive, but still I am getting stress as my return flight date is arriving.
Thanks.

H1B Stamping
Hello,
I had my consulate interview on August 29th, 2019 at the Mumbai embassy for my H1B. This is my first H1B stamping and I am about to start work on October 1. I graduated with my Masters in December 2018 and was on OPT until June 2019 and decided to come visit home before beginning work.
The interview was very short and the VO told me that my visa is approved and that I should receive my passport within 2-3 business days. I checked the status of my visa on Thursday (09/05) and it shows that it was under administrative processing. The last updated date was the same date as my interview (08/29). I checked again on Friday (09/06) and the status was updated but still showed admin processing.
Please let me know if there are others going through this same issue and if there are people who have gone through this issue and what can I expect? Thank you.

H1b Extension
I had my interview on July 22 in Hyderabad. The officer just asked me my current designation and said the visa is approved. he didnt ask for any other documents. Looks like extensions are getting stamped without any issues.
Just added some positive experience for all applicants , as they may be worried

Blue slip
I had my interview on OCT 28. VO asked some basic questions then gave blue sheet asking for 1. contract between my employer and client 2. letter from our company end client 3. details description of the project to which i will be assigned.
what i dont understand in above questions are - i said, i work directly to my employer not for end client. daily i will travel to my employer office not to client location.
If anyone on same situation please let me know how we have to provide the documents. if you have any sample please share it in [email protected] it would be great help.
Thanks in Advance.
