Waiting for RFE Approval
Hello Friends,
I've got RFE and my employers has responded to the request. 4 months ago the status has updated to 'Response To USCIS' Request For Evidence Was Received'. As we didn't see any change in the status, my employer has raised a case (2 weeks ago) and i was told by them, we may receive the news at anytime.
My query is, can anyone tell me how long they will take to respond for our case or from the status updated to Received the Response.
Thank you very much for your valuable time for helping me.

H1B Visa interview @ chennai Consulate
Hi All,
Thanks for everyone who shared their exp . It was very helpful before my Visa interview.
I was very tensed about my interview , because i was not having Client Letter from my client.But i had prepared with alternate solutions like Mail conversion with my client (dont disclose anytng abt proj) , Mail Requesting for End client letter to HR and client.
I had my Visa interview on 28/01/2016 @ chennai consulate.Overall the process took exactly 30 minutes.
While standing in a queue for VO interview. Man before me was asked what is your role in your project ? He started to summarize all the thing in American accent and with technical details for more than 5 minutes. On hearing this i started to get tensed , actually i started to forget what i have prepared for the interview. Please never ever hear out words from others while standing in the queue.
Questions asked to me.
Me :VO is an american lady ,she was busy updating some info in her system.i was Waiting for her attention. I wished her 'Good morning MAM!!. How are you'.
VO : with a smile . Good morning.Please give your passport.
ME : I passed the passport.
VO : Give your i797 form.
ME : After passing , she noticed about my petitioner and asked me are you working for company xxx.
ME : yes Mam.
VO : who is your Client.
ME : xxx Mam and expanded it . Might be she should had recognized my client.
VO : what is your highest qualification.
ME : Bachelor of engineering in Comp. science.
VO : what is your salary.
ME :$xxxxxx . While i was saying this and i have not even completed . She began to givethe rules and regulation white sheet and said your visa is approved.
My advise would be please be confident and answer precise , dont confuse your self and VO. Please prepare as much documents you needed . I had got some 50-60 documents which was not either asked by VO.
Thank you !! for sharing your advise and experience.

H1 & H4 Visa Exp at Hyd Consulate
First of all, Thanks to immihelp team and people who shared their experiences. They were very helpful.
Let me share my experience too.
OFC - on Feb 4th, 12.30pm.
- It was cool, asked general question purpose of travel and then took finger prints. And to my wife, why are you going to US? that's it.
Interview - on Feb 8th, 9.30am.
We reached consulate at 8.45am and we are allowed to join the Q outside, where they will check our passports.
Then we will directed to security check, where we need to keep all our belongings like belt, wallet, watch..etc. Once check is done we can get them back.
Once security check is done, we are asked sit near waiting hall, and then we joined a line to give our fingerprints again. Once fingerprints are over, then it's time to wait for visa interview.
We are given counter number, and we stood in line, before us VO was taking a B1 interview for an old lady. Here is my exp
Me - Hi, Good Morning, how are you doing.
VO - I am good, How are you.
Me - good thanks.
VO - who is your petitioner
Me - Answered.
VO - Whos is your client
Me - Answered.
To my Wife - How long have u been married - Answered
Where are you going? - Answered
Again to to Me - What is your designation
Me - Answered.
And finally golden words..... Your Visa Approved...yahooo..
Few tips:
------------
1. There are very less chances of H1 denial.. 99% we get it if all documentation is proper.
2. Visa Officer's are very cool, so be confident while answering and if you don't understand any question, please ask him/her to repeat.
3. When we stand in line for our turn, just try to observe the VO, so that we will feel better when our turn comes and while talking.
4. It's obvious that we all feel little bit nervous, but while you are in Q for VO, just prepare yourself to be confident.
That's all. Congratulations to ppl who got their Visa, and All the best for ppl who are going to attend.
Thanks
Dev.

Hi All,
Few things I wanna tell you -
a.99% H1B visa get stamped.
b.If documentation is proper, VO can't deny you a an H1B visa even if you are freezing while answering to the VO questions or even if you are not looking confident.
c. VO knows that people are tensed already so even if you are nervous , no need to worry just remember - reply in a very polite manner and use your facial as well as hands expressions as much as you can.
Below is my entire conversation with the VO :
Me - Good Morning Sir.
VO - Didn't great me back. Asked for the passports.
Passed both the passport (myself and my wife).
VO - Please pass I -797.
Me - You want photo copy or Original sir ?
VO - Both.
Passed a Photo copy as well as original I-797.
VO - Mam, can you pass your marriage certificate(to my wife).
She started taking the certificate out from her folder.Then VO interrupted in between and started asking questions to me.
VO - is this first time you are visiting on H1B ?
ME - Yes Sir.
VO - For how long you have been working with company X.
ME - 6.5 + years.
VO - Your Salary in US ?
ME - XX,ZZZ+ Thousands.
VO to my wife - Mam what work you are doing ?
My wife - I am working as a software engineer sir.
VO - How long you have been married ?
My Wife - For almost 3 years.
VO - Scanned something in his system and asked whether I have got the Rights pamphlet.
By this time ,I knew our visa was approved.
ME - Yes sir.
VO - Your Visa is approved.You can collect it in 2-3 days from your POC.
Again one more time - if your documentation is proper while filing the petition and there is no misrepresentation of fact anywhere, you will get your H1B stamped your for sure.This is my promise.
All the best!

H1 in Admin Processing
I appeared for H1B visa on 1st Feb 2016, at New Delhi consulate along with my Husband and 2 kids (H4 dependent), After the Interview with the consular officer, I was told my Visa is approved.
The consular officer collected our passports and said we would be getting them few days. However, when i checked the visa status @CEAC site, it shows the status as "Administrative Processing" I am really worried on what the actual status is.
Please Note, I wasn't given any 221-g form or any other slip/form of any kind and the consular officer collected only our passports / I797 Approval notice and my H1B file set all photocopy .
Has anyone experienced the same ??

Reg. H1 Query(RFE) and stamping
As part of H1 process, Query(RFE) raised to me and my employer responded that and got approval. Now I need to go for stamping.
While my employer responding to my query, they were mentioned client name xxxx and project name yyyy. Do I need to use the same project and client names in interview also. Is there any problem If i say that i am going for in-house project.
Please provide your suggestions.
