Very Very important note for all 221G holders from chennai
Dear friends
Many cases in this forum are relating to 221G blue handout.All those people please read this

Consulte wants to know that->
 your US employer is paying all the taxes properly to govt,Are they paying salaries to all the people they employed on time(Its well known that many consultants dont pay the salaries when employee is on bench.)
Very important point is - if you show that you will be assigned with inhouse project , even for inhouse project there will be a client. consulate never belives that a consultant will have is own inhouse project, thats why they will ask for a client contract letter.
The secondary thing is do you have genuine experience.Never Never show them a bogus company.A company might have building and a staff in india and even they might be STPI registered,but remeber all the companies do not have proper clients.For financial source they might be issuing the fake exp letters for the people who ask fot it.So please beware of it.
**** *And the final and most important thing is each case will depend on their indivudial circumstanses.U might see some people are asked to submit the additional documents,after submittinfg the documents some will get reply in very few days asking to submit passport for staming,and some people dont get reply even for few months,this is only because what the details your consultant have mentioned ,VO might not be satisfied with that,unless and untill consultant is geniune , client contract letter,wage report for all employees is not so easy for consultant to provide you,even if they try to provide by some how, VO will not be satisfied.Thats why we see that many people in this forum dont get reply for months.
AND DO NOT COMPARE THAT YOUR CASE WILL BE SAME AS OTHERS CASE.AND PLEAE DO NOT POST A QUESTION ASKING TO REPLY THAT I HAVE SUBMITTED A 221G DOCS TO CONSULATE THAT HOW LONG IT WILL TAKE? BCOZ TO BE PRACTICAL NO BODY HAS THE ANSWER FOR IT.ONLY YOU AND YOUR EMPLOYER CAN JUDGE THAT.
REMEMBER THAT THERE IS A VISA READY FOR A RIGHT PERSON WHO IS ELIGIBLE TO RECIEVE IT.

got 221(g) for H1 visa
Hello all
I got 221(g) at chennai consulate asking for additional documents from my employer and asked me to send in the drop box. I requested my employer to send them ASAP. Can you please give an idea how much time the Consulate will take to process my application.
Though my employer provided all tax returns. unemployment wage report for one state and other documents perfectly.she asked me to provide the Unemployment wage reprt for all states and all the employees details working for their company.
I am an MCA holder.
Kindly respond to this if anybody already got their visa through drop box.
thanks
Uma

Beware of Cognitim
Hi guys,
I had applied for H1B Visa thorough a Company called Cognitim (www.cognitim.com) and travelled to usa in december 2006. This company is full of people with Desi attitude and big lie tellers. They had promised me that they will provide Initial accomodation, salary even when on bench, Medical,Vision,Dental Insurance for self and dependents, airtravel for spouse etc. But its a big lie. They never provide any of these things. They are very big crooks. Dont ever join this company. They are liars. They are spoiling lots of peoples lives. And they harass you on basis of contract which you might have signed while joining.
