Hi,Thanks for this forum and whoever posted their interview experience.Today i had my interview fo L1 Blanket and it was very short and simple. I had my L1 individual already. now i have applied for L1 B. there was a seperate counter for L1 b.(Counter # 1).below is the conversation
she: Good morning.how r you?
me: Thank you.i am fine. How r u doing today.
she: (looking at my previous visa in the passport) so you had already travelled ?
me: yes.
she: you recently came back ?
me: yes. 2 months back.
she:you will be travelling for the same client ?
me: no mam. Different client. but i will be using the same technology and same tools for this project too.
she: alright. (started signing the papers..)
me: Thank you. Have a great day
she: Thank you.Bye...
me: bye
fortunately mine was very short and simple. but the same interviewer was asking so many questions to the girl who was standing before me.
my tips would be
1) dress up Formally
2) be cool
3) answer the questions with a smile. (don't give too much information for their questions)
Wish u all the Best.

L1, L2 VISA approved - Jan 20th 2009
L1A VISA of my husband and my L2 was approved.
we had a 1 year baby. Applicants with children are given a lot of preference, our interview time was 7am, the consulate opens only at 6.30 we were the second in Q.
A small pouch containing some baby essentials were allowed, donot carry any battery operated baby toys.
after the intial document checks, we were asked to wait until 8 for the interviewer to arrive.
The interviewer asked my husband the following questions
How long have you been with the company?
What is the name of your client?
What is your role?
Is this your first L1?
Have you been to the US before?
by the time he was answering the questions she had signed and sealed on the forms, she said your VISA has been issued it will be couriered to your office address.
She did not ask me any questions, we had carried our wedding album (just about 30 good pics in a small album) My son smiled and waved at the interviewer she was very nice.

Another successful story in the forum for L1B Blanket
Hi Friends,
Hope my experience would add some more value to this forum. I appeared for my L1B Blanket visa interview at New Delhi today.
VO : Good Morning Sir.
Me : Good Morning
VO : For how long have you been working with XX?
Me : Almost 3.5 yrs
VO : Who is your client?
Me : YY
VO : What is your specialised skill and job role for this client?
Me : I'll be configuring XX specific ABC tool and setting up realtime reporting.
VO : Is ABC your company specific tool?
Me : Yes.
VO : Have you done similar implementations of this tool for any other client in the past?
Me : Yes. For XYZ account.
VO : Where were you based during the implementation?
Me : London, UK.
VO : Ok. Your visa is approved and you'll receive your passport in a week's time through courier. Your B1/B2 visa is valid as well so make sure that at the point of entry in US, you tell them that you are entering on L1 and not B1.
Me : Thanks. I'll keep that in mind.
