Hi All,

Last month I attended the visa interview at Delhi embassy. Thanks to Immmihelp which helped me in preparing a lot in advance. I collected each and every kind of document, which I observed from the immihelp visa section. Mine was an emergency case.

My interview had only 4 questions though:
Where are u going: To do research....
Do u have any dependants: Yes
Are they going with you: No
NO...: Not now
How long are u willing to stay: ...yrs
You may collect your visa by tommorrow evening at ...counter. Have a nice trip.

Thatz it
Wishing you all the best

H1B 221(G) MONDAY LETTER
Hi friends,

I attended chennai consulate in May 2006 and got 221(g) for administrative processing(AAP) and the VO has

taken all my experience letters and H1B petition papers. When I was waiting the response from consulate
all of a sudden my present company(India) has closed the company. And when the consulate people contacted

my office there was no response from our company. I started searching of new job and given a mail about my

present situation. After one week I got a mail from Chennai consulate AFU(Anti Fraud Unit) and they sent a word

document as an attatchment . I am giving the contents of the mail below.

August 7, 2006


Dear candidate,

Please appear at the consulate for an interview on any Monday before 9.00 a.m. Please do not make an

appointment through the web.

You must bring the following documents to the interview:

• Passport (must be valid for six months at the time of application)
• Completed visa application form DS-156. Forms can be downloaded from

http://travel.state.gov/visaforms.html
• For all males between the ages of 16 and 45, supplemental application form DS-157. Forms can be

downloaded from http://travel.state.gov/visaforms.html
• One color visa photograph (50mm x 50mm, front-facing, white background)
• A copy of this letter

Failure to appear with requested items within 60 days of the date on this letter implies that you have waived your

right to a personal interview and may affect your case adversely in the future.

PLEASE BRING THIS LETTER TO YOUR INTERVIEW.

***

So I am in confusion whether there is any hope or not. How can I prove that my company closed . Can any body
give advise whether should I go to consulate or not. How should I defend my case at consulate. Can any body

faced the same problem. What are the consequences if I attend or not attend the consulate. Thanks in advance.

Visa Issuance fee
Hi All,
   The visa issuance fee has been scrapped off. This is what I saw in VFS site

Visa Issuance Fee:
  
Indian passport holders will no longer be required to submit an Issuance fee demand draft for $50 at the time of the visa interview. Holders of Indian Certificates of Identity or Bhutanese passports, continue not owe any reciprocity fee.
 
  
Other nationalities: please click here to determine the Issuance Fee amount payable.

2nd application after 221(g)
I went to the consulate in Chennai last year in the last year's quota on 4th Jan 2005 and got a 221(g) for client letter,product marketing analysis etc. The petitioner for me last time was Strategic Resources,NJ.

As i had a baby in Feb,i decided not to reply to the query and apply instead in this year's quota(2007). My petition is from a different employer this time.

Can any of you tell me whether i will be definitely asked as to why i did not proceed on my query in the last year??

I also wish to get any or all of the standard formats for Client Letter,Invoice,Marketing Analysis for the product etc??

Thanks & regards,
Basu

Information to everyone coming to USA on a indian company H1
Hello all,
Its after your personal experience that you gain and learn a lot.
I have few tips.
1) when u come on H1B visa, The first thing is change the employer the day you land.
2) Get each every detail on to the contract and dont sign on any document untill u thoughly read it.
3) please dont sign on any blank paper.
4)when you change u r employer you can rule him and dictate your terms.
5) ALl these Indian Companies are all of the same kind, just leave them.
6) Please try to avoid the comapanies from Michigan .
7) Get every single penney on the pay stub, pl dont go to tax evasion and you will end up losing money.

The best part is get the complete details of the employer back in india, the best you can figure out, as it might help you later.

I shall document and post it the next time
