F1 to H1. Administrative Processing. 221g White Slip. Hyderabad
March 11th OFC
March 12th Visa Interview (Hyderabad)
Backstory: I lost my passport in July 2017 and this was the passport my H1b was approved upon. I was expecting some sort of delays because of this. Everything else in my profile is straightforward as I am working as full-time for the petitioner in my area of study.
VO: So you lost your passport?
Me: Yes
VO: When was this?
Me: XX 2017
VO: What is your highest qualification?
Me: Masters in mechanical engineering
VO: What is your job title?
Me: Manufacturing engineer
VO: Which company?
Me: XX
VO: Do you work directly or for a client?
Me: Direct
VO: What is your highest qualification? (Asked this again)
Me: (same answer)
VO: What is your salary?
Me: xx
VO: Where do you work?
Me: XX
VO: Do you use CAD in your work?
Me: Yes
VO: Your visa will require additional administrative processing. You will receive an email from me today about the documents required. Send those documents and wait for the reply. (Returned my passport along with a 221g white slip marked administrative processing)
CEAC tracking says "Administrative processing" with March 12th as updated case date.
Received an email from consulate on the same day requesting just my resume and employment verification letter along with a generic questionnaire. Replied back the same day. Got an acknowledgement that they were received.
I was expecting delays because of my lost passport but instead of requesting scans of the police report or the old passport, they asked for my resume.
Not sure how long this will take but I wanted to share my experience with everyone on this forum.

Is Client details need for visa interview?
Hi All,
My H1b visa interview has been scheduled on next week. I have seem many threads, most of the VO's asking about the client details. This is my first visa interview (fresh). But I am not going to work with any client. Currently working in Offshore place. The petitioner(Employer) needs my contribution in the onshore for product enhancement. Is this valid answer for them? How could I expose my self for this question?
Please suggest me.

Received 221(g) but CASE CREATION DATE is not matching OFC date
Hi Admin,Friends,
I need urgent help.
OFC : MAR-07
VISA Interview : MAR-08
I got 221(g) slip at the end of my interview and VO asked me to track on CAES website using the case number on 221(g) slip.
When I try to track my case online, details populated are little-bit different,
It shows CASE CREATED DATE as "MAR-06" - The fact is I have no work/appointment with Chennai Consulate on MAR-06. I am not sure why its showing case created "MAR-06" , it should be MAR-07 as my OFC date.
If anyone have received 221(g) can confirm if they have CASE CREATED DATE matching their OFC date Or something else ?
Really appreciate your help.
