H1B and H4 Stamping on Oct 5th ( Hyd Consulate )
Hi ,
I attended to visa interview this morning in Hyderabad Consulate . My slot was booked at 8:30 am and i reached consulate by 8 :00 am . I went inside after all verification's of my documents and make sure to not bring cell phones to the consulate as there will be no lockers provided by the consulate like in Chennai .
I reached inside the consulate and got a token and the wait time for me is almost an hour . Finally my turn has came and i went to counter no 15 . The Visa Officer is an young guy and he greeted us (Me and My wife )
Vo : Good Morning
Me : Good moring sir how are you
Vo : Good . (He scanned my DS 160 form and had a look at it for a minute and asked me to pass all my documents and i passed all the documents like LCA, I129 , PO , SOW , Contractor Agreement with Client , My Employer invitation letter and Client verification letter Provided by my Employer )
Vo : So , you are going to work for this company YYYY ZZZ
Me : Yes Sir

Me : Yes , i do have with my previous company YYYY ZZZ
Vo : What happened to the previous 221(g) ?( I had a 221g with my old employer and i didn't answer that)
Me : After the visa interview i had an health emergency where i need to take couple of months bed rest and the client is not willing to continue with my contract . Hence there is no Client i didn't submit my documents for my previous 221 (g)
VO : How did you know about this company ?
Me : I posted my resume in Job Portal and they approached me as my Skill-set exactly matches with the requirement and i had been through couple of technical interviews and finally i got an offer
Vo : Where is this company located ?
Me : City YYYY X , State YYYYY
Vo : What is your highest degree of qualification ?
Me : Masters in Computer Science
Vo : Where did you finish your masters ?
Me : From YYYY XX University
Vo : what is your salary for this position ?
Me : YYYY X dollars per year
The visa officer checked each and every document that i provided to him . He gave me a white slip with additional administrative processing check-box checked in the white slip . He told me that i will receive an email with in an week from the consulate and please submit your passports after that .He retained my I797 , Purchase order , Contract agreement between client and employer , employer invitation letter and employer client verification letter and gave the rest of the documents to me .
This is my experience and Can any one please let me know who are in the same boat and how long it will take for this additional administrative processing ?

H1B Approval - Mumbai 5th October
I had my OFC appointment on the 4th of October at the Trade Center in Bandra Kurla Complex, the process took 10 - 15 mins and involved giving finger prints and getting a photograph clicked. Documents required along with passport are: Appointment letter and DS160. Since the VISA interview can only be scheduled the next day, this new process will give you an evening to kill in Mumbai.
The next morning I went to the interview location with all my documents, after waiting in the queue and inside the consulate for an approximately 2 hours my turn finally came. The interview was very straight forward and the VO looked at my I797 only. I was asked the following questions:
1. Who do you work for?
2. What do you do for them?
3. Team Size
4. Supervisor Name
5. Marital status and if my spouse will be accompanying me
And then I saw the VO keeping my passport and returning the I797 and saying your visa has been issued, please collect your passport from the address specified by you.

221g - waiting from last six months
I had my stamping interview (H1B, Kolkata) on 23rd of march 12. There I was given a green slip (211g attached) and no extra document was asked from me. I was also informed that I will get a call from consulate within 2 to 3 weeks and then I will have to submit my passport for the stamping.
I am consistently checking the website since then and it shows my status as “Pending”It has been more than 6 months and I have not heard anything back . My petition is expiring on 30th Jan and I still don't have my visa stamped.

Got my H1 extension
I got my stamping done successfully today at Hyderabad consulate. I was on h1 Extension.
I was desperately waiting for an update on IMMIHELP to see if some one would post their experience in the last one week as the procedures have changed. ... that is why Im posting my experience, so that it would be helpful for others.
I was asked questions, client, location, salary details, ..
Tough question was, Why did you leave your previous employer and joined new one... I answered technically
I was so much worried about my stamping, as i am here for a 2 week vacation..i Couldnt dare to leave US due to stamping issues these. Any ways prepare well, although very few questions will be asked.. Best of luck
