Pink Slip in H1
Hi
Me and my wife went for H1 visa interview in New delhi on Dec 20,2010. Mine was approved but my wife got Pink slip and is being asked for some more documents like job duties, contact numbers etc. We have sent all documents through email.
Please let me know if anyone else also in similar condition and how much time it may take.
Thanks
Raman

Received H1B today
Hi
I would like to share my positive experience with everyone. I have BTech and MTech from IIT and have 6 years of experience in startups and am at a senior role in a startup in mumbai. I recently decided to move to US with a successful pre-IPO stage startup.
Got the job offer on 18th Oct.
Labor filed: 9th Nov
Labor approved: 17th Nov
Petition PP filed: 22nd Nov
Petition approval: 3rd Dec
Visa interview: 17th Dec
Visa stamped received on: 20th Dec.
I have been very impressed with the process of the visa. Yes, it was a bit exhaustive but I believe they are doing the right thing. The swiftness of my approval also shows that genuine candidates don't need to worry.
In my visa interview, the VO looked at her screen for quite some time. And then she started with questions for my wife. Right then I knew that my visa has been approved.
Questions for my wife:
How long have you been married?
Was your marriage love or arranged?
How did you meet?
Questions for me:
Where did you do your college from?
Which subject was your masters in?
Which company are you joining?
Which City?
What salary?
Overall the VO was very nice to us. Then she said have a nice day and returned us the i-797 copy and we left. She did not ask for any documents. I feel sad for all the trees for all the paper used in printing so many documents.

Pink Slip
I attended H1b interview (visa renewal) at Chennai on Dec 16 2010. The VO asked usual questions and told that the visa is approved but needs additional information. He told to go to another counter. The lady at the counter retained my passport and asked my complete previous employment details, just the name and period. No documents requested so far and given pink slip. Anyone had similar experiences where passport retained and VO told visa approved?

My experience at Chennai Consulate: (H1B Visa renewal)
Interview Time: 11:15AM, reached there by 10AM, started in the actual line at 10:30AM (keep in mind that they might call you 45 mins before the interview depending on the number of applicants..so keep an eye on the guy shouting for current time slot applicants)
1st counter: Checked Interview appointment letter + CEAC Barcode confirmation letter - got the Token Number
Passed security check (the guy asked for photo CDs, sealed envelopes which are NOT ALLOWED - keep all your paper work easily accessible (unsealed))
2nd Counter: Waited for my turn at Counter 2..Make sure you don't sit idle when you see your number displayed at the counter. Stand and wait for your turn. The lady checked my I797 + passport and took my fingerprints and told me to go to the next building.
3rd Counter: I just had to wait for 5 more minutes for my turn here. The officer was pretty cool. He asked me how long I have been with my employer and asked me to show Client letter, Pay Stubs and W2. That's about it.
Good Luck for you all! and Great thanks to everyone for sharing their experiences.
