H4 visa interview experience
HI to all readers of this website,
  i would like to share my moments in chennai consulate and i thank this site to provide unknown informations that make steady to face interview
  I had interview last week.Remember only to carry folders with u .No bags are allowed.I went there with my 5 months baby and when i kept my first step in consulate she started to cry.Iwas given preference and finished all the formalities within 20 minutes and reached finger print line.My baby cried more and the female who guide there showed me a private room to feed the baby.So mothers dont worry about that.Then after taking finger print i was made to stand in the line towards interview.

vo asked me to come and i stood there politely.

me:goodmorning sir
vo:goodmorning.give me the folder
me:(gave him)
vo:when did ur husband go to u.s?
me:mth/dd/yr
vo:give me the company letter
me:(gavehim)
vo:(he was verifying each particulars in his computer for more than 15 minutes and went inside)
 he came back after 5 min and asked for the pay stubs for the present company
me: i gave him
vo:(he was verifying for another 15 min and asked for the pay stubs from previous company he worked.he gave me the blue form and said i need the pay slips without asking whether i have the documents he required)
me:i have it sir
vo:(surprisingly)then give it
 again he was verifying some thing and gave me the blue form keeping it at the bottom of all the documents
me:(i never expected and i was trying to look at the forms to see what else is needed)
vo:he asked give him the blue form with smile and to pay the fee in the counter with very big smile.
me:thank u sir

Meanwhile i put the folder containing addititonal documents and tried to pick it and failed
then i was looking behind me that anybody could help and evyone stood like statues as they should not cross the line on the floor.i was looking for guider's help and could nt find them again i tried my best to pick the folder and lost my balance and seemed to fall. Thankgod i caught the slab before me and stood up with great difficulty.
I was fully shaken at that moment if my child get hurted and worried about my child and not much about the granted visa.so mothers who carry baby with u pls be alert always and seek help if cant carry the folder.unluckily i could not get help from any one BUT GOD SAVED MY CHILD AND HELPED TO GET VISA. ALSO MY HUSBAND HELPED ME A LOT TO PREPARE MYSELF AND TO HAVE ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTS

HAVE ALL THE MADATORY DOCUMENTS AND ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTS THAT COULD BE ASKED.BE PREPARE WITH UR SPOUSE ABOUT HIS COMPANY AND WITH SOME BASIC QUESTIONS.
BE POSITIVE ALWAYS AND BE COOL.SUCCESS IS IN UR HANDS. GOD IS WITH U ALL .FAITH POWER WORKS WONDER.TRY UP TO THE LAST .ALL THE SUCCESS.

Reg forms for 221g
Hi Folks,

I have attended H1B intvw in Chennai in Apr and given 221g for not having project docs.

I am planning to go again in a week or two. My doubt is do we need to carry the same DS-156 again? When I called VFS they said I need to fill up DS-156 from some site http://eforms.visa.....

Those who have attended for 221g interview please help me in this regard.

Thanks in advance,
Sridevi

Successful 9th year extension H1-B Stamping
Thanks to all for posting your experiences. Here was my experience. I had my interview on 5th May and was well prepared will all the documentation that I could imagine with me. The main difference between my case and others is that mine is a non-IT job and my employer is a local government and that I think, makes a big difference.
During the pre-screening process, the VO just took the required documents - passport, DS156,157, H1-B approval notice, and I-129 application and put it in one folder and told me to only submit those documents first.
At the actual interview with the VO, the officer just asked me the following questions:
How long have you been in the US?
What have you been doing during that time?
Where is your employer located?
What do you do for your employer?
I see that you are on a one-year extension, so who has applied for your GC?
Where is your GC in the process and when did you apply?
That was all the VO asked and did not ask me for a single other document.
The only issue was that the waiting was really long and had to stand for at least 3 -4 hours and I noticed a lot of applicants were not really answering the VO's questions properly and hence were rejected.
I don't know if my experience is relevant to others, but thought I'd post it in any case.
Good luck to all..
