H1b Stamped @ Chennai 4th Jan
Hi all,
I have been a constant reader of this site for the past 1 year or so.

I am working presently in the middle east and had been to india on vacation when I got the H1 stamped.

My experience in brief:

* went in morning to consulate , about half hr before int time (went at 7, int at 7:30 AM).
showed appmt letter and passport to get inside. (no mobiles or bags allowed, plastic covers n files were allowed).

* Inside was asked to wait. The VFS guy said "H1/L1/H4 is going to take more time. BEP candidates r going to take even more time." and started calling people for B1/B2 etc.

* after half an hour was asked to go to next building. There at the entrance, gave my folio (since my employer was BEP , was carrying a green folder) to the VFS lady at the entrance and went inside and waited.

* After 15 mins they came with the files and calle dout names and i took mine.

* Now stood in the queue for finger printing. First the left index, then the right index.

* after that waited for another 15 min, was asked to join the queue for BEP employees.

* After abt 20 min in the queue my turn came.

The interview:
-------------
Nothing special. None of the project details n addresses n fone numbers i had mugged up. were asked.
VO: Good Morning
Me: Good Morning.

VO: Who is your client
Me: pardon me (didnt hear the question)

VO: slightly irritated .. Who is ur client
Me: YYYY XX

VO: I have never heard of them ???
Me: They are a YYYY X. (To that i added helpfully.. My petitioner is YYYYY).

VO: I know that sir.

After some time..

VO: Ur visa is approved. It will be couriered in 2 days time.

Me: Thank you.

Documents I carried:
--------------------
Company had arranged the docs in a green folio (for BEP) with DS 156,HDFC receipt,I-797,Photocopy of petition set (including LCA,edu evaluation etc etc), copy of passport pages, BEP letter.

I carried documents related to education , experience letters. Nothing else. I was a bit scared if Vo would ask for project details doc or somthing but nothing was asked.

Regards,
Anoop

I had my stamping on 17-Jan.

Key to getting visa stamped:
1. Confidence

3. Luck

Keep all your documents well arranged so that you can give the documents quickly once VO asks for any.
