Query for H1B Stamping
Hi,

My client has multiple offices in the same city.
The address in my LCA is 'Location A'. Now my project has moved from Location A to B. Now, the address I received in Client Letter has 'location B'. The same Client Letter was submitted at the time of RFE and it got approved.

The distance Between Location A and Location B is less than 3 miles. Client is still operating from both offices.

1. Will this difference in Location will be an issue during Stamping? If yes, how can I answer it?
2. What address should I mention in DS160, the one mentioned in LCA (Location A) or the actual work address mentioned in Client Letter (Location B)

MUMABI - H1b renewal - dropbox - 221g(green) - interview
Hi guys, sharing my experience/timeline for folks to get an insight -

13th Dec - Dropbox (passport + DS160)
20th Dec - Passport Returned + 221g Green slip ( "appear for interview"
23rd Dec - Interview (walk-in @ 10.30am)
23rd Dec - Case Updated - Admin Processing
.
..
...
....
9th Jan - Case Updated - Admin Processing (~ 10.30am)
10th Jan - Case Updated - Issued (~10.30am)
10th Jan - Passport tracker - Ready for pickup (~330pm)
since it was a Friday evening, i had to wait until sunday i.e. today

12th Jan - Passport picked up

The delay sucks, but overall if your VO mentioned "its approved".. you should have the AP updated as issued within ~10-15 working days worst case (i.e. keep a buffer of ~3 weeks)

Like some of you, had to cancel my flight as well, but happy its done now.

Good luck to all.

Best,

H1-B VISA stamping experience in Hyderabad
H1-B experience:

Date of interview: 10-Jan-2020 ( it was supposed to be on Dec 24, but at the last moment it was changed by consultate only.

I have carried all the documents , one has to carry 😅 though nothing was asked to show during the interview, but having with us gives a different confidence all together.

Interview:

I was standing in the counter line and observing
 very closely , what my VO is asking me fellow mates and all.

Before me there were two people , not sure about what kind of VISA they are having. But i heard them explaining about some projects and all.

My turn now:
I have to tell you the fact, VO is so super cool, he made me calm by his conservation style and way he speaks 🙂

VO : how is your life ?
Me: Answered with smile.

VO: so you work for XYZ company?
Me: Yes i answered

VO: how long u have been with this company?
Me: answered accordingly

VO: asked some thing, which am not clear. He repeated again based on my request. Question is "How much u make"

Me: answered

VO: so they r sending u to New Jersey?
Me: Yes i said

VO: do you went through the rights for employers ?

Me: I said Yes

VO: your VISA is approved, safe travels to US.
Me: i thanked him and returned back.
