Got H1B @ Chennai on 8th August 2011
My H1B was scheduled on 8th Aug @ 9 am. I had my L1 rejections twice, so i was bit nervous on the outcome of interview.

I st stage - Security check and they will issue a token number

Don't carry anything other than documents.CD's , pendrive etc.. are not allowed

II nd stage - Fee Payement & finger print scanning. Counters are available and your number will be displayed for your turn.

It will be better you carry passport and US visa size photo wih you. Because i have seen for few the photo was not matching with DS 160 or passport.

III rd stage - Interview. Questions asked are
1) Is this your first H1b?
2) What is your highest degree of qualification ?
3) Your under graduation ?
4) What you are going to do for ZZZ?
5) Who is your client ?
6) Which location you are going to work ?
7) Provide the letter which ur company has written to USCIS about your roles and responsibilities at onsite?

After this he was typing something on his machine for long time.. I thought ..ok he is gng to reject...

Then he told your visa is APPROVED ...i said thank you and left the place.

Thanks for all who posted your experiences and all the very best for all who are going to appear.

Read your I797 petition and answer in same line during interview.....

Successful H4 Stamping Delhi Consulate
Hi Guys ,

My wife and daughter had a successful interview without any hassle at Delhi consulate . I was following on this forum for quite sometime and was really concerned about the outocme .

BUt the experience is really wonderful .

VO asked to show principal applicant I 797 and last stamped visa (2008 jan)

VO did some research for 5 minutes on her computer and THAT's IT VISA was given and they received the passport in 3 days at home address

I think people with only negative results are posting on such forums and really demotivating people .

Let's rejuveniate everybosy who is planning to go for stamping by putting more success results

Thanks and Best of luck

Successful Stamping Aug 3rd 2011 - Chennai
Thanks to Immihelp and its user for posting their experiences. Had successful visa stamping yesterday on E-C model. Only few questions asked and didnt ask me any document other than the ones in blue folder. The question were:

VO: Which university did u get your masters from?
Me: CSU, Campus Name.

VO: Which company do you work for ?
Me: Said

VO: What is your salary?
Me: $xyz Per Month.

Vo: Do you work for a client?
Me: Yes

VO: Who is your client?
Me: XYZ Company.

VO: Where is your company located?
Me: City, State

VO: Are there any third party involved?
Me: NO

VO: Are your sure?
Me: Positive sir.

Said you would receive your passport by courier in a week of time.

Me: Thanks and have a great day.
VO: Thanks

From my experience the E-C model added weight to my case and didnt have any problems. He rejected three candidates in front of me. He was asking the questions very fast and typing something at the same time. He was also very loud. I maintained my temper and answered him at a soft and cool pitch.

And also my approval was not updated in PIMS and thought it would delay my stamping process. But VO still said i would receive my passport in a week. Looking forward for it.

Thanks a lot and all the best for candidates attending interviews in future.
