Some people are reading experiences and doing lot of research before going to the consulate but forgetting to update others after getting the stamp. Please guys, there are lot of people including me waiting to read positive feedbacks from you. I think atleast 400 people attend interviews everyday at a particulat consulate. But I do not see even 2 to 3 shared experiences on the forums.
Please make some time to update/post your experience at the consulate wheather it is positive or negative.

I appreciate your time.

Thanks
Kiran

Stamping experience - Chennai Consulate June 8 th ' 09
Me and my wife went for H1B and H4 stamping to the Chennai Consulate on June 8 th 2009. This forum was very helpful and want to give my share to this forum as well. The interview was at 9 AM. I went there at 7.45 am.

7:55 am : Verified the appointment letters (outside there is a window where we need to show the appointment letter)

8: 00 AM: security clearance (Do not take sealed envolopes. If carrying a folder go for a transaprent folder). I had a non transparent one which the security questioned, but let me go.

8:20 AM: We were made to sit in a place just after the security cclearance.

8:25: The person inside was calling the interview timings: 7.45,8:00,8:15 am appointments. Finnally at 8.30 they called for 9 am appointments.

8:40: Finger prints were taken for me and my wife

8:50: For H1's and H4's it was not seperate hall. the counter was just after the finger printing counter and it was not at all crowded.

8:55: I was standing in the line for the interview(Only one guy was ahead of me)

9:00 AM: Questions asked:

Me: Good morning

Vo: Did not reply for that

Vo: How long are u there in US:

Me: 6 years (3 years F1 and 3 years H1B)

Vo to my Wife: Where you are going to live

wife: Los angeles

VO: what is your husbands salary

Wife: 32 k (which was wrong)

Me: Corrected saying my salary

Vo: You will get your passport in 2 busines days.

Me: I went and collected the passport next day from vfs office.

spouse on tourist visa
Hi

I am currently on h1b status but got married on june 17,2009. My husband was on a tourist visa when we got married.

Now there's only 3 more weeks to go before his tourist visa expires. How can we make it on time to file for H4? is there a premium processing for this?

I don't want him to go back to the Philippines.

Is it possible for him to be here in USA legally while waiting for his H4 approval?

H1 Extension
Hi Everyone,
First of all congrats to all the people who got their stamping done.

My Question: I was working in US for little more than 3 years and I shifted xyz company to abc company in last july 08 and I was in US till FEb 09, I was about to loose my job and i opted for transfer to India office and also I transferred h1 transfer to yyy company and my h1 is approved from yyy company, now I am planning to go US since I can get a project from my contacts, for stamping from which company should i go from ABC company or YYY company? ABC company is reputed company in US and also it is very difficult to get all the letters from aBC company since there is no necessary for me to go to US, but YYY company is small time company and they are not ready for me send for stamping, and other side is i lost couple of projects from contacts since everyone wants me to fly immediately, kindly suggest?
