L1 Individual Stamping Experience in Chennai
Hi guys
I must say that the last two weeks were one of the most harrowing times ive faced in years. To start with my story.. I appeared for a L1 Blanket Interview in Chennai last Oct and was refused a visa under 221(g) section 8 .... My company then applied for a Inidividual L1 petition and i got an approval in January. But again due to some organizational changes i was required to apply for another Individual petition and after a long wait because of internal mishaps i got the approval just 3 days after the petition was filed on July 23rd. Anyways on to my story.. I was really nervous about the interview and had butterflies in my stomach..
Thats when i chanced upon this site ... I must say boy the experiences of other people really helped me prepare for the interview. thanks a lot all you guys..
I had my visa interview yesterday.. Here are the excerpts
Me : Hello.. How are you doing?
VO : Good. thank you
VO : So you are here for your L1 Individual or Blanket
Me : Individual
VO : Can you tell me something about the project you are gonna work for..
Me : Start saying about my project and the VO interrupts me in about 15 secs.
VO : So xxx is your client and you are gonna work on their financial products.
Me : Yes. thats right.
VO : What is your role in the project
Me : An Architect
VO : What does that mean?
Me : Start saying about the Architect profession
VO : Okay. Can i see your letter of support
Me : Hands it over to her.
VO : After a few moments of sifting through the I-129 .
Sir Your Visa is approved . Your passport will be couriered to you in 3 days.
Have fun guys

L1 B Blanket stamped
Thanks to this portal which gave me hint about questions. My interview was pretty cool, thanks to my lucky charm, my 6 month old son. Because of infant, we did not have to stand in any queue in chennai office and everything was complete within an hour and that helped big time. Again i was lucky to have indian counselor who asked simple questions.
How long in this project.
How long working for this client.
Who is your client.
What is your project.
But first question was, whats meaning of my son's name and this question removed my nervousness.

Rejection and more rejection.
Hi All,
Not sure whether it can be pure bad luck.Please help if you have any clue:
September,2006 - My company had applied for H1B and the Petition was denied for "Lack of Specialized Knowledge" even after a thorough reply to the issued RFE.
August,2007 - My company applied agin for L1B Individual. This time denied straight for the same above reason.
I am a BE in Civil Engineering, holding 2-IBM, 1-Sun, 1-Oracle, 1 CAD and a couple of other preofessional certifications. I also had a paper published in an International Conference on software Engineering.I have total of 24 months experience in Mainframe - Enhancement & Testing.
Thanks for any help or suggestion.
Regards,
SK

During our L1 visa interview, the consul officer asked the plastic folder that i'm holding, while all the necessary papers is already on her hand. i have no choice but to give it to her and then she found inside the single sheet of paper that i prepared for as a sample visa interview. she asked me what's the purpose of that sample question and answer and i said that it's just my preparation because i'm having a hard time in constructing correct grammar during interviews, and then because of that she became hesitant to approve our visa and she give me a 221(g) letter instead.
is it a ground for a possible refusal or denial of my visa for my L1 petition? what are the possible outcome for what she found out that i have a sample interview questions? is it illegal? though it's never been states on their immigration laws or embassy interview rules or law.

L1 Blanket
Hello all,
Recently I had been to chennai - to face L1 interview. My interview slot was at 10:45 am on 20th.
I was there sharp 9:45 am. since there wasn't much crowd, the security allowed me immediately and for the pre-screening processes- (check for the weapons mobile, sharp instruments etc..) it took nearly 10 mins
Then i was asked to submit my BEP folder in the glass counter. Once that was verified, I was sent to the next bulding where there is queue to feed the finger prints. There I spent nearly 15 mins.
Then I had to stand in one more big queue - for nearly 20 mins. Then all L1's, B1's and parents were separted. So i was the fourth in the Queue.
Following were the questions from the VCO:
VCO: Hello Good morning
Me: Very good morning to you
VCO: What do you work as for your company?
Me : blabla
VCO: Who is ur client?
Me : Bla Bla
VCO: Have you ever been to US?
Me : No
and thats all.
the VCO replied that the stamped passport would be couriered to me.
Thats it.
I hope this info helps you all in anyways.
Regards,
Suma

Hi,
My F1 visa was rejected earlier.
Now applied for L1 visa and got it.
So don't fear about earlier rejections.

Successful stamping of L1 Visa
Hi All,
I had my interview at Chennai Consulate yesterday (August 13th) for
L1-B.
Following are my questions:
1) Explain about the project
2) Project Strength in offshore and on-site
3) Reason for selecting you for the project
4) Your role in the project
My Visa was approved and confirmed that it will be couriered shortly.
As per my experience, the following pointers are important
1) What ever we explain before the VO needs to be very confident in our answers.
2) Go through the Visa petition and the documents you got from the company before interview
3) Be prepared for questions like:
(a) What special knowledge you pose?
(b) Why can’t you do the same from off-shore?
(c) What is the criticality of the project?
(d) What is your role in the project?
4) Take care of your right and left index finger from any cuts/marks which may postpone your appointment
Be well prepared before going for the PI and get your project specific answers for all the questions posted in immihelp
Thanks to immihelp for hosting a wonderful site for Visa Aspirants
Best of Luck for all.
