Got H1B in mumbai on Nov. 1
hello friends,
              First of all thanks for all the active members and the admin of this site. This site is really helpful.

I had my interview scheduled at 10:30 AM on Nov. 1 in Mumbai. I reached VFS at around 9:00 AM. I opt for the VFS lounge facility (by paying Rs. 150). They took the 10:30 AM appointment people at 10:50 AM. Bus reached there at around 11:05 AM.

Then I stood in the line for security check. There male visa seekers will have to remove their belt and take your watch out and your documents etc. The security officer (all indians) will ckeck your folder containing documents if you have hidden some pistol etc..kidding..he he :)
Female visa seekers will get checked by female security officers.
After your security check you would be getting a wooden-token (like a 6-inch scale) which you can put on ur shirt's pocket or elsewhere. That wooden token signifies that you went thru the security check. And you will have to return that token back to any security officer while leaving the premises.
After that you are required to go thru a metal detector door and then you can take your belt,wallet,documents etc. and go inside the main arena.

There you will asked to stand in another queue which will first take you to a counter where some officers(indians) will arrange your original Notice of Action,interview appointment letter,passport in a green-envelope. After that you will be asked to go for finger-printing. There after taking ur fingerprints you will be given a pink token having your "Token Number".

Then you can sit on the chair and wait for your turn.The VISA officers inside the open counters call either one token number at a time or 6-7 token numbers at a time.
Please pay attention coz the token numbers are called randomly. Your token number can be called anytime. There is no sequence funda.
Do not talk to anybody and pay attention to the token numbers called by the visa officers.

In case if you feel that your token number was called prev. and u didn't paid attention, then don't worry, the visa officer will call again, but I am not too sure if it happens everyday. So paying attention is really important.

My token number was called at around 12:30 PM.
My interview went like this:

VO: Hi! How are you doing?
Me: Hi! I am fine. Thank you. How are you doing?
VO: Have u been to US before?
Me: No
Vo: So why are you going to US?
Me: I am going for a project work with my petitioner XYZ.
VO: How many experience do you have?
Me: answered
VO: what technology?
Me:Answered
Vo:How did you get the job?
Me:My profile was on internet.They contacted me.
Vo:Which website?
Me:Answered
Vo:Ok fine I am approving your VISA. It will reach to you in 2-3 working days.
Me.Thank you. Have a nice day.

That's all. She didn't asked for even a single document. I was carrying every possible document.
She was a very easy going and cool VO.God bless her. :)
That's it guys.Good luck.
Don't worry..Upar wala madad karega.

Confidence is the main important...
I knew everybody says this but that time will get tention automatically.. atleat we can do one thing to avoid tention...chat with persons who are standing in line at counter and motivate each other so that it will make some confidence... that's all friends.. all the best for everybody who all are attending interview in future!!!!

Original Vs Xerox
You can show xerox. When I asked, Do you want to see Original or Xerox, The offficer said, doesnt matter. But how ever, It you must be able to produce original for his ref, If he ask for it. So carry both Original and Xerox.

Response to "Courier Delivery Time"
It is typically the next working day on all major cities. If you are in Chennai, you can go to VFS office at Cenatoph Road, Tenampet and collect it in person between 4-5PM. You need to carry your hdfc receipt and interview letter. You can track if your passport is available for pickup through vfs website or through the SMS service from your mobile. Typically your visa wil be available on the same day for pickup if not next working day evening.

Check VFS website for "Rush Service" to know more.
