Perhaps, some one can help me. I am in a pickle!
I have my H1B VISA appointment on the 2nd of Nov in Delhi. I am currently working in the US and my planned date of arrival is on the 1st Nov. Unfortunately the only date for OFC - finger printing I could get was on the October 18th and there is no way I can be in Delhi since I am currently in the US. Is there anyway I can reschedule the OFC fingerprinting ? Or if I can get a better dates for the VISA appointment so that the fingerprinting can be rescheduled between 2nd of November and the 24th of November in Delhi. I have been in a different status , on F1 visa and been in an out of US a lot of times. They have a record of my fingerprints. Do I have to take the finger printing again? Please help!

I have a question to all experienced H1B people here. I don’t know if this is the right place to post such question.
My H1B petition got RFE (2013 Cap). Can my employer withdraw my H1B petition at this stage? If yes can my employer get back the petition charge from USCIS?
Thank you in advance for your help.

H1B approved after 221g white slip
Hello Everyone,
First I would like to say thanks to immihelp for posting the experiences.
I have attended the interview in the month of August, and issued 221g white slip.
Step 1:
---------
Reached consulate by 8.30 am, my interview was scheduled at 9.30 am.
Security allowed me to consulate after checking the passport, and the time on the appointment letter.
Went inside and I saw a person assisting the people to sit on the chairs based on their interview time.
he called the people who were scheduled for 9.30 am slot.
completed security check and went inside, there I saw people were sitting out side in two different lines.
One for B1 and one for H1.
after waiting for 30 min they asked me to go to counter number 5, where they check your HDFC receipt and the photo quality on the DS160 form, they will ask us to take a photo graph again if the quality is poor.
you need not to go anywhere to take a photograph, you will find a person sitting next to the counter.
They asked me to go to counter number 9 for finger prints.
It took nearly another 30 min to complete photograph check and finger printing.
after finger print they asked me to take a token to attend the interview.
I waited for another 15 min for my turn after taking the token/
I heard my token number routed to counter number 10, I went there, there I saw three more people waiting in the queue.
Step 2:
--------
I saw all the three girls got approval.
Now its my turn.
Me: Good Morning sir, how are you doing today
VO: I am doing good, how are you
Me: I am fine (Submitted my passport, DS160)
VO: Who is your employer.
Me: ABC
VO: asked for my I 797
and then I 129.
VO: are you going to work at client location.
Me: yes
VO: Can I have the client invitation letter
Me: submitted the invitation letter.
VO: Can I have the complete itenary
Me: Submitted
VO: what is the client name
Me: ABC
VO: Searched about the client in his system for a while.
VO: By looking at I 797 these many people work at your employer.
Me: Yes sir
VO: Do you have office photo graphs
Me: Passed photos
VO: photos looks like these many people are not working here
Me: I said I already worked there sir and I know the employer has these many people working.

I have submitted all the documents along with my passport at VFS hyderabad last week.

Hi All,
wanted to say thanks to this forum since the inputs here were very helpful and provided a lot of confidence. here is my experience -
Day 1 - Fingerprinting and photo. Reaching half an hour earlier than the scheduled time is enough. otherwise you will be waiting unnnecessarily outside.very easy process. just a minutes deal.
Day 2 - try to reach 45 mins earlier than the scheduled time. it helps. be patient. security checks will take some time. one more improtant thing - you can keep passport, DS160, application invitation handy. maybe in one folder. second folder can have I797 and rest of docs.
1. once you move in after security checks, they will give you a token number. it will be with you till the end of the process.
2. once your token number appears (in 5-10 minutes), you have to go to a window and give passport, ds 160 and I797. they will verify and bundle it.
3. then you have to go to counter 6 or 12 where they will verify your fingerprints. (another 10-15 minutes)
4. then they will ask you to move to the other building. you have ot wait there for another 10 -15 minutes before your number appears on one of the coutner.
5. VO are very nice people. they smile at you and greet you. you shall also do the same.
6. my interivew lasted for 15 seconds. this is what was asked -
a. Hello Sir..good morning
b. which client
c. which city
d. what will be your role at onsite
e. how much are they paying you
f. thanks..i am approving your visa. you will get your passport within a week.
so be calm, be confident and keep the documents handy. thats it :)......good luck..
