Visa Approved- Hyd consulate
Hi All

Thanks for sharing your experiences, and here is mine.

Went to stamping for H1b for me and my wife today. Slot was at 9.30.

vo: Is your employer xxx?
me: yes
vo: Do you directly work for employer xxx or have client?
me: yes i have client
vo: what is client name?
me: AAA
vo: Salary per annum?
me: told
vo: what is your highest education?
me: Master's
vo: Which state you live in?
me: told
wifes turn
vo: how long you been married?
wife : told
vo: Are you working as well?
wife: no ( as she is on depended visa)
vo: what is your education?
wife: told
Meanwhile she took white form which i knew kind of 221g.
vo: ok your visa is issued.
i hand question in my mind as why she took 221g.
vo wrote case number and said your petition number is not update in our system, it might take 2 days extra and repeated, there is no issue with your visa. we just need some extra time, max 5 days.There is nothing wrong and we dont need any extra documents.

There is nothing check marked in 221g , so i felt happy as well.

Interview was quick and less than 2 mins. Most of them were parents coming for stamping and some h1bs.

Definitely there would be some worry as its an interview. But VOs are there to issues visa. Have proper documentation, that it self gives us immense confident and answer appropriate to questions, Thats it.
My wife insist in writing our experience as she was reading all that is posted here and helped.

Good luck guys!

Hi All,

My Visa has been approved today.

Here are questions I was asked:

I work for a good university in US in IT and hence questions were related to that:

1) Which department I work for?

2) What is my salary?

3) When did my 1st OPT / STEPM OPT started if I remember?

4) When is my travelling date?

5) What are my roles and responsibilities?

That's it. Let me know if anyone has more questions. You can also email me at [email protected]

Good Luck for those who have their interviews scheduled.

Please share your experience on H1B renewal stamping when you have valid petition. I am with the same employer and did not change employer. Is it difficult to get stamping?

Anyone has got an experience?

Below are questions were asked

VO started Checking the passports ... Here is the first question: How old are your kids? Answered

How long have you been married?
Who is your petitioner?
Are you working for your petitioner or client?
Which location you are planning to work?
How much is the salary?
What is your highest qualification?

then VO said your Visa is issued and will receive an email to collect the passports...

I was not asked any documents but its always better to have all the required documents...

All the best for the folks who are planning to go for interview... There is no need to panic at all and ignore about the rumors in media .....
