B1/B2 to H1B Stamping in Mumbai Consulate
Hi Guys
I recently had my B1/B2 visa to H1B stamping in mumbai on 27th Jan 2009 at 9:00 AM.
Here's my experience if it helps

Submitted my application online at the VFS website. Took a print of all documents as mentioned in the check list package and submitted it to VFS 5 working days before the interview date

On the day of the interview
Reached the star and stripes lounge at 8:15
They give you a complimentary Coffee and a Sandwich( two slices of bread with green chutney for which they charge 250 bucks) and at around 8:55 the bus arrived for taking us to the consulate

At the consulate went through the security checking, waited in another queue where i was handed the package i submitted earlier.They asked my to add my I797 Notice of action.

Went for the fingerprinting where i handed over the package along with the 1797 and was given a pink token with a number. I was waiting in the seating area until my number was called

Heres are a questions i was asked

Me: Good Morning Hows it going today
VO: no response

VO: please give me the pink token
Me: Gave the token

VO: so you cut your hair (Had recently had a haircut and my hari was short compared to my passport pics)
ME: Yes sir i long hair before

VO: scanned through my DS156 and DS157 and typed in a few things
VO: SO you are working for XYZ company
Me: Yes

VO: for how long
Me: told him the time i was working

VO: so you are working for a client of XYZ
Me: Yes

VO: is this your first B1/B2 to H1B stamping
Me: Yes

VO: ok your visa is apporoved and your passport will be couriered

Me: Thank you have a good one


And walked out ....with a great feeling

the interview was hardly for 1 minute and for this one minute i was preparing for a month or so.

As long as you have all your docs you should be fine

Wish you all the best
