Visa revalidation
I visited chennai on July 10 th and went to US embassy Chennai on Jul 13. My interview went for 2 minutes and VO asked my current designation and how long I have been in the organization. She approved my visa and didn't ask any other details or documents. I noticed one thing during my stay in the embassy that for fresh H1B, if the prospective employer is big MNC then VO approved the visa after asking few questions. For small unknown companies the person has to carry all documents and need some luck also. If the person has family better go with family and no need to wait in the long queue.

All the best.
