H1b Visa Experience @Hyd- More documenets required
Visa slot @10am 07-04-2016 @Hyd

Counter No :14
My turn came at 10:24am , a young lady was taking interview for 4-5 min for each candidate. Before me, she gave 221g for them as there was a data mis match and she was not convinced.

Me: Good Morning Mam
VO: Good Morning. Who is your petitioner?
Me: Answered
VO: Who is your client?
Me: Answered(she didnt heard it properly. I spelled it but she was searching for my petitioner name in her system and she was unable to find direct website url and I told her website but she didnt listened and still she was searching)

VO: What is your project?
Me: Explained
VO: Do you work at client location?
Me: Yes, but in the beginneing Im going to work at my employer place , once I get social security number then I will be moving to client location.
(She was searching for client company , I dont know whether she found it or not but my client have a big company)
VO: Show me contact letter between your petitioner and client?
Me: I dnt have..

She has collected all my documents and went inside and gave those documents to some other persons and after 3 min she came back saying that please be seated in labby, you ll get a call soon.
After 2 min one guy called me asking for 1)client letter 2)contract letter 3)letter to USCIS
They have given one email id to send those documents , after verifying I will get mail to drop my passport it seems.

Any one is in same boat? generally how many days it takes after submitting those documents to drop our passport.

Waiting for your valuable suggestions.& All the best for those who are going for VISA interview.

H1B Visa experience at Hyderabad consulate - approved
Thanks to immihelp for arranging such a good platform to share and know about the visa experience. It definitely helps US Visa aspirants like me :).

I have been going through immihelp since last month and read almost first 60 pages of it. Thanks all for sharing your experience. It helped me a lot.

Below is my experience at Hyderabad consulate on 4th April.

I am not mentioning about OFC (3rd April) as it is a easy process.

Note: Car Paring available at Pass port office and functional hall. No worries :).

Reached consulate one hour early, allowed me immediately . Waited for more than 1 hour in waiting lobby and next to security check.
Security guys didn't allow the sealed covers, sent me out to open it.
After waiting one more hour, cross checked our finger prints and allowed me to interview lobby.

One lady took my passport and gave it VO.

Below are the list of questions to me.

ME.Good morning madam ? how are you?
VO : No reply. (She was very busy)
