H1B visa at Chennai on April 4th 2011 at 9AM
I had H1B visa at chennai,
I got an offer letter from xxx company.
Im very scared by seeing the VO officer bcoz my B1 visa is rejected by her only. Im very tensed, but the discusssion went very smoothly.

VO: Good Morning sir,
Ans: Good Morning mam, thank you.

VO: pass the documents.
ME: sure and passed the documents

VO: Which company you are working for
ME: working as a xxxx designation for xxxx company

VO: why are you going to US
ME: I got an employment opportunity over there to work with xxxx company.

VO: what is your salary.
ME: xxxx dollars
VO checked the LCA for the salary confirmation

VO: what is your highest qualification
ME: Masters of computer applications.

VO: have you read this white pamplet,
ME: no anyone didn't provide to me,

she said ok and pass the white pamplet and the golden words had arrived "your visa is approved"
you will get it in a week.

I said thank you..

The overall expeirence is we should be very confident and eye to eye to contact. that's it
and one more thing in my observation now a days they are approving H1 very easily, rather than B1 and L1 visa.

I attended the visa interview in Hyderabad. Mine is a EVC model. Initially VO asked normal routine questions name, where do I leave, My employer. Once I mentioned that I have a vendor in between the VO started grilling me about the Employee-Employer relationship for good 20 mins. I answered all the questions confidently. But at the end of the interview she gave me a 221g saying my application "Administrative Processing".
