Visa Interview
Today is my turn to blog the success story.....

Out appointment time is 11 AM but we went around 10 AM and the crowd was minimal.

Came inside the consulate by 10.30 after done all the preliminary check and done the following things

counter 1 - Verified the passport and DS 160 in the same counter for both of us

Next counter - Taken the finger prints by foreign lady (USA Facilitator)

Went to the interview building around 10.45 and the VO officer seems to be very young and very polite with the candidates.

Questions are as follows:

Whos ur employer?
Whats ur highest qualification?
Whos ur client?
How long you have been married?
arranged or love marriage?

and finally he said our visa is approved and we will be receive the passport within 7 working days....

We thanked and left from consulate. It's a very simple process and be confident while answering.

Dependent Visa
Hi,

I attended Visa Stamping in Mumbai on 29 OCT. Both Mine and dependent got approved. Basically i'm from Cochin, and paid 300 each for the passport to be delivered at my home address.

I got the status seen moving for my VIsa and it is to be delivered today (as per ustraveldocs passport tracking site). But my wife is in Origination Scan status (The status of your passport is Origination Scan).

I have a question,
Would they have bundled both the passport together and would have send it.
Or why my wife passport alone is reading as Origination Scan.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Raghav
