H1B VISA HYD APPROVED ON OCT 7
This forum made me comfortable and relaxed all times when i read the positive cases of HYD.
It has filled confidence and able to answer the questions a bit confidently. The result is positive.
My sincere thanks to this website and my friends who are writing and replying. Kudos.

Here is how my interview takes place on oct 7.

 I have been given 14 counter. I joined in the queue as a 5th person. Before me all are for dependent VISAs except one Ph.D student. On my first look an Young lady(VO) was bombarding with many questions to a couple who are taking tranlator help. I saw they confidently answered but wonder to see VO rejected VISA. I then thought this counter VO is strict and thinking it will be a tough interview for me. The next turn came to a Phd student to whom as well she shooted many questions despite he did not responded well. She was paused and caught her head thinking whether to approve Visa to him or not. To his luck and God's blesses, she had approved and suggested him to improve his speaking skills. He was happily left the by greeting her. For the next two dependents she took only 2,3 minutes and approved the VISA. By this time i was relaxed more by seeing her sudden approvals. My turn came and see the conversation below.
(My voice is a bit high in all these conversation today)
Me: Good morning Man( With grin)
VO: Good morning
      who is your petitioner?
Me : YYYY ZZZ
VO: what are you going to do?
Me : I am going to work for the projects?
VO: It is inhouse project Right?
Me: Yes Mam
VO: What are your job duties?
Me: I listed out few with high pitch of voice i myself felt i am making entire floor to hear.May be because of over nervousness, but showed the confidence with eye to eye contact.
VO: Have you been to any country?
Me: Yes i worked in London for 2 years.
VO: Did you work in US earlier?
Me: No, this is first time i am going to work. I worked in UK only.
VO: What is your highest qualification?
Me: YYYY YYYY (again bigger voice)
VO: Have you collected US Rights Pamphlet.
VO; yes Mam
VO: I am approving your VISA.
Thank you Mam.
Cal i leave?
VO: Yes, Next please.

There is no status update available for the passport number submitted
Dear Sir/Ma'am,
I had attended my Visa interview on Sep 24th and I was given a 221g white slip. My passport and other documents was taken by the consular.
When I check the status online it says "Administrative Processing and status last updated as Sep 24th"
When I check the status via the IVR it says "Your passport is still with the US Embassy"
However on 12 Oct early morning when I checked it showed as "There is no status update available for the passport number submitted" but the status on CEAC is still showing "Administrative Processing".

Request you to please guide me which is the best option to check the online status.
Thank You!
