I never thought this was a Visa interview!!! I think I m a very lucky gal to get a VO officer like her. She was just talking to me like a friend!!! I just felt so comfortable so pleased. It was just an amazing experience. Even though it was a long conversation I was completely enjoying it!!!!

Tips:
1. Dress formally!!
2. If you are desperate about getting ur Visa opt for Delhi consulate! Because all most all the ppl who came for L1B blanket got their VISA.
3. Just make them feel at ease and keep the conversation lively. (before that read the mind of the VO). Donot panic. From the fist two converstion I understood she was of my type and I just made her feel the same! Do some Natak yar come on!!!
4. Don¡¦t worry guys!! Lets rock!!!

L1B Got approved
Got my L1B approved. Dont worry about the procedures and formalities, they have enough people to guide you there. So they all would happen automatically. Just concentrate on your Visa Interview part.

I was asked only one question after a formal greeting between us.
VO: What is your project?
Me: It is a developement project. (Then one line description)

Then he verified the docuements and kept the passport with him, returned me two other documents and Called the next person. I understood (since he kept my passport) that mine was approved.

me: Thank you Sir.
VO was busy in receving the other applicant.


Based on my experience, I would tell, apart from your preparation and all your hard work, you should have that luck factor to get the Visa. So go prepared for everything.

L1B Experiences
First of all, i must congragulate this site. This site will really boost the confidence. My interview was scheduled last week @ 10.15. I used stripes and lounge facility . This facility will help to bypass the long queue standing in the road side. At VFS, one guy verified the document and arranged in correct fashion. One issues that was commonly happening was the wrong dimension in the Photo that most of them are bringing. The photo should be 50mm * 50mm. A square one. This is not the old passport size. The specification is that back ground should be white etc. In the studio, you need to specifically mention that it is for US Visa purpose. In VFS, there is one option to get that instant phtoto.

I went VFS @ 9:30. At 10.00, they took me to US embassy in a VAN. There, the security officials allowed us to by pass the long queue standing in the road. After showing the passport and interview letter, they allowed to enter inside the counsulate. AFter a security body check up, they told to us to stand in the queue for doucment verficication and scanning the fingures. After that they told me to go to next building to pay DD. In the next building, i paid the DD and then stood in the queue for Visa interview.

When my turn came, VO smiled at me and asked How i am?

Me: I am fine, How are you madam?
VO : I am fine, give me the documents.
Me gave the documents.
She started looking the documents and started giving back some papers to me
VO :How long you are working ZZZ?
Me : 2 yr 1 month
VO: Who is your client?
Me: ZZZ
VO: Oh ZZZ? What are you going to do in ZZZ?
Me: I am going to work for a project, where my job is to analysize the requirement and enhance the application uisng YYYY (company's) properitery tools.
VO: Oh !!! Properitery tools?
Me :Yes with a smile
VO : Did you design the application?
Me : Yes
VO : IS this the application is in production?
Me :Yes
VO for how long this is in production?
Me : 1 Year
VO : Cool.
She started sealing the documents and signed and then golden words came that your visa is issued and will be courired..

I told thanks to MaM and came outside the counsalte with the documents that she gave it back.

My suggestion is Keep smiling and be confident. Even if u said some thing wrong, keep smiling and polietly tell sorry and then correct it.

Got BL1 approved and stamped yesterday
Friends,
I had my BL1 interview yesterday and got it approved and stamped.

The verifying office was an American Lady at counter no:7
Below are the questions asked to me and my wife?

Me: Good Morning Mam. How are you doing?
VO: (With a smiling face) I am good.

VO: Who is your client
Me: Mentioned the client name.

VO: Why are you going to USA and what you will do there?
Me: Will be going on temporary assignment on BL1 to work for our client ZZZ. Mentioned about my role and Wipro proprietary tools which I will be using for execution of the project.

VO: What is your project?
Me: Our project is XYZ.

VO: What does the project XYZ standards for?
Me: Explained.

VO: How long you are working with Wipro?
Me: For the last 5 years and 10 months

Now verifying officer suddenly turned towards my wife and surprisingly started asking rapid fire questions to my wife and fortunately she answered all the questions calmly with a smiling face. Below are the questions:

1. Madam when did you get married?
2. Was it a love or arranged marriage?
3. Who arranged the marriage?
4. Why your parents thought Mr X is the perfect match for you?
5. Did you meet before your marriage?
6. How many times you met Mr X before marriage?
7. Where did you meet?
8. Did you meet Mr X alone or along with your parents?
  
Thanks to my wife she has done well and now the verifying officer turned towards me and told me:

VO: Everything looks OK to me, let me stamp the I29S forms for you which you need to carry during your travel to states.

VO: It seems I am missing some documents here. Do you have a document like this (shown me the I29S form given by Wipro. I had one copy left with me; earlier two copies were collected from me by the consulate authority while standing in the queue)
Me: Yes I have one more copy with me.

VO: Give it to me. I need this.
Me: Gave the form to her.

Now the verifying office stamped two I29S forms and handed it over to me and told:

VO: Please handover one form to your company and carry one with your while traveling to USA. So now all done for you.

Me: Thank you very much. Have a nice day.
VO: You too.


All aspiring candidates, be confident and polite you will definitely get the VISA stamped without any trouble.

Best of Luck.

I had PA on 6th Nov 2008 and It got approved.
As My petition is an attorney petition, there were not much questions to me.

I was asked a question " What will you do in US?"

Then I said YYYY , ZZZ,ZZZ ..

Thatz all, He said my visa has been approved and will be courierd to my company.

Please be clear on your answers.

Don't tell any of your company tools, As Visa Officers are very much known that you won't use the tools.

So, be careful on this and all the best.

Thanks,
Abdul.
