I went to Hyderabad Consulate in September 09 for F1 to H1 stamping. I was there 15 mins before my appointment, I suggest not to go to early as you will not be allowed inside. After checking my passpot and appointment letter at the gate I was sent in. At the door we were given a tray to keep cell phone, bracelets etc. CD's etc are not allowed inside. After security check, the next line was at the counter were all the documents were checked. Next I took the token and got seated at the waiting place. After about an hour it was my turn for the interview.
Q's asked - which company u work for, which client, Client location, what client does and my role in the project. That's it. No documents were asked. FYI- My friend was asked for pay slips.
Best of luck.

Attended H1B Visa Interview on 6th Oct 09
Hi,

I attended H1b visa interview on 6th Oct 09 at 9.30 am.

VO: How many years in YYYY company.
VO: Who is your client
VO: Which place your traveling to
VO: Which stream you have completed your engineering in?

Then golden words came from him saying your visa is issued and you will receive your passport in a week.

Be confident, prepare well before attending well, read all the documents you have and answer the same what ever is in the the documents you submitted. All the best.

Thanks,
Vinay

221g clause for H1-B visa
Hi Guys,

           I have attended the visa interview today at Hyderabad consulate for H1-B visa. I got the 221g clause. The visa officer said that my petition is not reflected in the PIMS database. (Petitioner Information Management System). He said it will take 2 days time for them to verify the petition details. Did anyone face the similar experience and will my case be resolved in 2 days or will it take longer?

Questions Asked at Interview:

1) Why are you going to US?
2) Whom are you working for?
3) What is your annual income?
4) Since when are you working for this so and so company?
5) Show me your paystubs
6) What universities did you attend in US?

Just to give little background about me. I am on F1 trying to convert to H1 and I am currently working in US and I had all legitimate documents and my I-797 says my petition for H1 is approved but I still wonder why does it not reflect in PIMS database. My advice to everyone before going for the interview is check with your employer and attorney about whether your case shows the approved status in PIMS and you can also check your status on www.uscis.gov by typing in your receipt number. Make sure it shows the status as approved to avoid any further delays.
