Successfull H1/H4 Visa
Dear Friends,
Just wanted to share my experience with Visa stamping which was scheduled on 17-Nov-06 at 10:00 am in Mumbai Consulate.

Please make sure you do not carry anything else other than documents when you are entering Visa office otherwise you will have comeout again and again to keep things out and waste time.

I had gone with my wife and my son for the visa.

Here is the Q&A session with visa officer.

VO: Please come in.
Me: Good morning.
VO: Have you been living in US before?
Me: No.
VO: So your 1st time?
Me: Yes.
VO: What is the name of your current company.
ME : XYZ company.
VO: She passes me back my I-797 form and says I'll need to show this when I'm crossing US boaders.
Me: OK Mam.
VO: So what qualifies you to go to US?
Me : I have got X no. of years of experience in IT and I have got an offer from ABC company.
VO: So must be good company to work with then?
ME: Yes mam.
VO: she checks and scans DS forms of mine and my family and says all form looks ok.
VO: OK you are all set to go, your VISA has been issued and you will get your passport with stamping in 3 days.
ME: Thanks a lot and have a good day.

All is takes is confidence and make sure you have all the documents in place.

All the best for all are applying.

Thanks to all who have posted their experiences.

Regards,
Anjan

h1b approved mumbai consulate
hi,

first some background, i appeared for h1b at london consulate on 23 oct, the vo told me o attend in india as all my education was completed here.

so attended for visa interview at mumbai on 14th dec and got approved , here is how the interview went

vo: what are you going to do?
me: what excatly do you mean by that.
vo: why are you going to us?
me: explained in brief the project i was going to work on and for which company.
vo: i am very happy you are the only one who has explained me properly what it is you are going to do.
vo: what are they going to pay you?
me: told?
vo: it says that your visa was rejected?
me: told him about my london consulate exp.
vo: you look different in your photograph, and they called another vo to verfiy if the man inphotograph and me were same. the other officer asked me to take my spects off and confirmed it is the same manand to aprrove visa?
vo: entered my new application photograph on the computer and told me , i am approving your visa.,
and to have a nice stay .


friends , every one who entered before me for an interview got his visa approved, so be calm and take your own time to answer and dont go into tech details , just explain how you explain to a layman. and only get into details if he asks.


with regards,

maruti.

Hi all,

When i went to Chennai consulate on Dec 11th. She has given me a 221(g).

She has marked every thing on the paper and given me. on the 221(g) she stamped " Application Received". even on the passport she stamped the same thing.

And on the back of the paper she tick on "submit the additional information through VFS" . Is it necessary that i need to submit through VFS or can i go to the consulate.

Got H1 Visa
I attended my H1 interview on 12th Dec and got visa.
Thanks to all who has contributed their invaluable experiences which has helped me a lot to prepare well before hand for the D'day.

My interview time was at 10AM and I reached the place by 9:45AM. I finished all the process and was out of the consulate by 12:10PM.

Questions asked by VO(male) at counter no 14 to me
1. How did you get this offer?
2. How many employees were working in this company?
3. What will you do there?
4. Which technologies you were into?
5. How many years of exp you have?
6. Show me your certificates?

That's it guys, no further questions or documents he has asked. He told me that I will get my passport in couple of days through VFS.


One suggestion to all aspirants is don't get worried/panic by questions the VO ask or if he rejects or send back with 221g the candidate before you in line.

Mind that your case is different and attend with full confidence. The only difference you can make is wish him with a smile.

All the Best.
