H1B revocation
Can someone please answer these :
Is it possible that consulate revoke the H1B visa validity after a DUI arrest?
If the H1B visa validity is revoked, can H4 person enter US after that.

First of all , I would like to thank all members of this forum who have provided their experiences that are helpful to prospects like me :)
My Visa experience
OFC
Date and time : 3rd aug/ 8 am
It was quiet normal as explained in many other posts here . They allow in only 15mins before and collect your fingerprints and photograph. A simple 15mins procedure . please do carry your passport DS-160 and Appointment letter
My Visa experience
Date and time : 4th aug / 11am
This time they allowed in one hour before my scheduled time slot . They even did not check my DS / Appointment letter. Just took my passport to verify details and allowed me in . Security was done after which a seperate counter was maintained to verify biometrics. Next waited in lobby for 15 mins before a personnel called us in to stand in queue for VO . Atlast after 15mins , here is my interview
VO : GA
Me : GA and how are you ?
VO : Fine . Please handover your PP
Me. Sure thing .(Handed over passport through counter slot)
VO: So, who is your employer
Me : xxx
VO : you work for him directly ??
Me : No , I work at client location
VO : who is your client
Me : ABC
VO : how long you have been woking for him
Me : 16 months
VO : do you have the pamphlet ?
Me : yes , I do .
VO : what did you understand from it
Me : How to screw my employer
VO laughed and said golden words " your VISA is approved "
My advise : Do not listen to one's Advise along with mine :)

H1/H4 - Chennai / 28th-29th Jul 2016 - Experience
I have been a silent reader of this forum and experience from other people helped me prepare for my interview.
So giving back to community, I am sharing my experience which might someone like me :-)
28th Jul - OFC
Appointment time - 15:30
Reached - 15:00
Out by - 15:25
It is standard procedure as mentioned in so many other posts.
Few points I experienced
1. I carried my mobile phone as was just asked to switch it off.
2. I was carrying photos for my daughter (6 years) but they took her picture instead. No fingerprinting for her.
29th Jul - Consular Appointment
Appointment time - 9:00
Reached - 8:40
1. Long queue for security
2. They scanned the polybag i was carrying
3. Another queue to verify appointment date and time.
4. Fingerprint verification. They made us skip the queue. Thanks to my 6 years old daughter. My wife's 1 finger print didn't match. So they retook the fingerprint for her
5. Long queue for Visa Interview. They didn't put us in priority queue :-(
6. Interview lasted for 2 mins max
Questions (not in order)-
1. Which company you work for?
2. Who is your client?
3. What's your designation
4. Which city and state
5. Higher education
6. Marriage date
7. Salary in US
And then the golden words... Your visa is approved..
No questions asked from my wife or daughter.
1st Aug - Passport is ready for pickup :-)

Vancouver Delivery Location
Hi all,
I have my H1B renewal appointment in Vancouver next week.
I was wondering if it is possible to pick up the passport at the consulate instead of the delivery location when taking the appointment.
If not, where is the best delivery location for Vancouver?
Thanks

H1B extension
Hi My name is Simran. I have specific question about relocation and get H1B visa stamped from India
I am currently working for abc company which is based out of India, I got selected in lottery of Year-2015 for H1B VISA and moved to California on Year 2016. My first term of Visa will expire in Dec -2016 and by that time I will be utilizing almost 1 year visa period. Currently I have some personal things for which I need to go back to India for at least 6 months. I cant travel if I will apply for extension now. If I go to India am I eligible to file relocation for another client and get my visa stamped from India after staying for next 6 months.
Your advice is really helpful to me.

H4 VISA RENEWAL CASE
Hi,
Please help me with your advise.
Me and my family got visas (i got h1b and family has H4) last year. Our visas will expire on sep 30th. I came to US and got h1b visa extension. But my family did not travel and they are planning to travel on sep 15. I am planning them to go for renewal of their visas. Questions in my mind are
1. Sep30 visa will expire so, how many days prior can they attend for renewal visas
2. Is there any interview waiver for them.
3. My wife got new passport recently as her pp has expired. old passport has stamped visa. Is it ok?
4. If i need to make fresh appointment for consulate interview for them, can i use the same user id to make an appointment in ustraveldocs.com site.
if i create new user id is there any issue? old user id is showing non editable old passport number.
can you please help?
