H1B stamping for Wife & Husband
We booked the appointment time & date for both of us at same day. It was the US election results day. Reached consulate around 9:50AM and our appointment is at 10AM. went inside the consulate and finished the formalities like security check. First counters are for verify the passport and staple I-797A,fee receipt, appointment letter & DS-160 conformation page. We have to proceed next to a waiting area for our turn. We were told to keep it ready the LCA,I-129, employer letter & client letter, resume, pay stubs and project description. Since we are family we attended the interview together even though we have a seperate H1B's and appointments.

Me: Good morning How are you.
Vo: Good morning How are you doing.

Me: Are you following US election. ( As it was a US election results day ( Wednesday Morning Nov 7th))
Vo: Yes... Obama got reelected

Vo: Please provide the passport & I-797A. I will complete your interview first and take your wife H1B interview next.
Me: ok sounds good.

Vo: How long you are working for this compnany and what is your highest qualification.
Me: Masters degree and working in the same field.

Vo: what is your designation and job role and responsibilities
Me: explained and handed it over and he said he anyway does not understand the technical details.

Vo: Provide me your employer letter,LCA, I-129.
Me: given the docs.

Vo: How long on H1B and did anyone applied for immigrat visa (I-140)
Me: Yes and provided I-140 copy.

VO: Is your son a US citizen and only one child.
Me: Yes he is US citizen and have a daughter and she is at home with grand parents.

Vo said he is approving my visa and receive the passport in one week and said let us see if your wife qualify for H1B visa.

similar questions to my wife and approved the visa.

My suggestion is please take all the documents expecially I-129, LCA, Client letter and pay stubs. He is look each and every details but if your documentation is good you dont need to worry.

H1 and H4 at Chennai
Thanks for sharing all the experiences.. It was very useful to go through them and understand what to expect with the new process. Below is my experience..

OFC on 5th Nov - Our appointment was at 10:30 AM. It is possible to get car parking within walkable distance. They allow mobiles inside (should be in switched off mode). We reached there by 9:30 and had to stand outside until 10:10 AM. They allowed people inside after that. Since we had a kid, we were allowed first inside. We got a token and there were multiple counters. Then people will be allowed in the order. Fingerprint itself takes only a few minutes. They ask your full name and DOB just for verification. That's it!

Visa appointment on 6th Nov - Our appointment was at 10:00AM. We reached there around 9:20AM. Only some 5 people were in the queue. Even if you take some things which are not allowed, you can drop them outside for a fee (not sure about the amount). Lot of people were using that. Security check went smooth. They give a token once we enter the building. Then we had to stand at two counters outside. At first one they ask for passport, DS160 and appointment confirmation. They made is a small bundle with a rubber band. They also asked for petition. In the second counter, they scan the appointment confirmation letter and ask to keep the finger prints. Then we headed to the other building. Everything is based on the same token number. We went inside and our token came up right away! There were other people sitting in the chairs though. Not sure how we got it so quick. We were in front of the VO. He asked which client are you working at YYYY state. Answered. Asked how much I am being paid.. Answered. He looked at my kid and asked if she is an American citizen (she is). Then he said our visa is approved. It was so quick! Everything inside the consulate was complete within 20 to 25 minutes..

Thanks for sharing all your experiences.. Ours went very smooth and quick..
