H1 stamping done in Chennai.
Hi all,

I read experiences in this site to prepare myself for the stamping. I found more positive news here than negative news and bad rumours which is why I liked this site.

I went for H1 stamping at Chennai consulate on second week of may. My appointment was at 9:45, but was allowed inside at 9:30. Saw 2-3 guys with Admin processing and rejections.

At document verification counter, my photo was rejected and the officer advised to get one done. There is a studio within consulate and they charge 100 or 200 rupees. Make sure you bring it to consulate.

Questions asked,

When did you join the current company?
What do they do?
What do you do?
What is the highest qualification?
When did you graduate?
What is your first job?(Luckily, no experience letter asked. I did not have one, since I quit my job. I had my payslips, W2, offer and other letters to support in case)

Asked to show my approved LCA.
Questions from LCA :

What is your Salary?
Employees count in the company?

Answered all the questions with confidence and got the visa approved. I got more questions than I expected but was cool and confident.

Got the visa at Hold at location in another city since my town does not have Blue Dart service.

No question asked at POE. All the best guys!!

Stamping very smoothly
I was in U.S for the past few years. And I had to go to India for a consulate stamping for further extension. I booked my date for Hyderabad consulate appointment from U.S. I chose the option saying that I was resident of U.and wanted an appointment for visa. To my surprise the whole process of security check, documents verification, took not more than 25 minutes. We had a 9am appointment and we went early by 8 am. The Security let us in at 8:45 am. After going in, our H1-B 797 was verified in a database and the personell at the entrace wrote PIMS data base found. I and my wife went to the counter in few minutes and the lady Visa officer asked me
How long have you lived in U.S
where do you live in U.S
show me the latest pay stubs.
After verifying my pay stubs she told you will get your passports with VISA in a week.

To all those scared and staying back in U.S go ahead its been very positive experience

H1B Fraud company - MOUNT CONSULTING
This is the bloody stupid company , MOUNT CONSULTIING, mountinc.com, sister concern of everest consulting group. I was applied for H1 thru this consultancy based in NJ and Fremont, in the year 2008 and since then I did not receive even a single piece of documents from them to go for stamping. When I ask them to send papers , they say WAIT. And the ASHA, the contact person says that we dont send and we will not return money.

I AM GETTING FRUSTRATED AND PLANNING TO COMMIT SUICIDE , ITS MY LONG TERM WISH TO DO JOB AND I AM SIMPLY GETTING FRUSTRATED.

Sue this indians based in Fremont, would like to kill them but based in throusands of miles away.

Friends, do not apply for any reason thru these companies.

Othe related operatging companies.

1) Mount consulting
2) EVerest consulting group
3) Summitworks

Bastards, you screwed up my life.

H1B Visa
I received a call from IT Holdings INC, NY for H1B sponsorship. They are saying that all the necessary help will be provided. I want to make sure about the company's rating & reputation before making any decision. They also ask $1500 as security deposit which they mention it as refundable.

I would also like to know one more information. At present I have H4 visa and wanted to apply for H1B visa now. In future if I want to switch back to H4 from H1B, what is the procedure and how it is to be executed.
