Possible Answers to some queries
To the Singapore guy.
Look in your I797 Form. If the port of entry is mentioned as Singapore, you really have nothing to worry. Otherwise try convincing them about the additional costs to travel to India.
To the Mech guy.
I have Electronics and Communication Degree and the guy in Chennai specifically asked me to show computer subjects in the 4 year mark lists. After I said I almost had six courses, he said you are not qualified based on your degree. Then I showed him my Microsoft Certified Professional(Signed by Bill Gates) cert. He said that's not good enough. Then I showed him my work ex related docs and he was satified. Show him any university certificates of computer courses. Even an open university 6 month course cert would do. Don't fake. They really check.
Thanks

Summary of info available here
Hi all,
after going through the numerous cases presented here (including mine), I felt like composing a summary - that would be helpful - at a Glance.
Consulates:
-----------
Mumbai/Delhi seems to be easy. Chennai - they are asking for Degree/PG Certificates for each one.
Fake educationalists - beware.
Type of Sponsor:
----------------
BEP Guys: Relax. Its very very easy for you.
Non BEP Guys: (Who get offer from some US Companies direct) well, you need lot of additional stuff. Refer to cases presented here for docs like LCA, Photoes, Tax certificates, blah blah...
Qualification:
--------------
Should not be a problem depending on your Sponsor. Non IT Stream guys - if you have additional certifications - good. Otherwise, your experience counts. What ever, you should be able to justify why from a NON-IT Background, you are going to US. Say that: You are strong in IT, have suitable experience, did that course/certifications etc.
Project in USA:
---------------
This is the clinching question in VISA Interview. You must rehearse verywell about your project, the modules it has, the client you are going to work with, what kind of busineses they do etc. Do there to four rehearsals in front of your friends/mirror. Also gather as much as you can from Internet.
Thats all I think.

I enterred into next buliding, counter number1 where a lady took My both Index finger Impressions.
Then i went to Counter number 5 Then my Interview started.
VO: Hello Good afternoon, How r u
Me: Fine and How r u

Dropbox results
Hi
I attended H1B recently and was issued a 221g to submit a client letter along with some employer details like tax returns, lease agreement etc.
I submitted all those documents in the VFS drop box Hyderabad.
As per the latest news from the consulate that all the pending files are cleared...How many days it usually take to get the result.
