Hi Guys,

I have my L1 - B Individual scheduled in 2 weeks. My husband is already in US on L1 visa. During interview if I am asked where is your husband working? Will the answer that he is in US affect the chances of getting my visa approved?

L2 for wife
Can anyone please help me in below matter :

I have got my L1B stamped . I need to apply for L2 visa for my wife who is employed here in India. Her employer will not give her NOC for travel to US for even shorter duration .

1) Can anyone help if there any way out for this apart from resignation ?
2) In case she resigns now and apply for interview in next 2-3 weeks , Can that impact her L2 visa approval since they might think that they have intentions to settle down there . ?

Can anyone please help on above points . Thanks .

Thanks everyone for posts in this forum . This helped a lot in cracking the interview .

L1B questions were the same as mentioned in other posts

Keys to succeed in interview :
Prepare Prepare and Prepare for your questions . Write down questions and answers in notepad and revise them two days prior to interview many times

Can anyone please suggest me that Do I need to wait for my passport before I can apply L2 for my wife ? Or can I simply go ahead and file L2 visa for my wife without waiting for my passport ?

L1 B blanket Approved Chennai
This site was of immense help for me when i was preparing for my Visa. In my office ( Leading American Bank ) apart from main document, every step has to be done by only by me with out any assistance. No immigration team at offshore too. So i had to ask many folks and read many forums before proceeding to each and every process. So for a person like me, this site has been immense help. But negative thing is u will feel the heat if you go through each ones experience. Remember one thing, this is not the end of the road and we can still live a happy life where ever u r. Dont make situation to take control of you. Let me share my experience.

Biometrics : Appointment at 9:15. Reached the venue by 8:15 and to my surprise they let me in. All the process got over with in 15 mins. I could see many folks who came with their family had only one DS160. Remember you need DS160 for each individual.

VO Appointment : Scheduled date at 9:00 AM. I reached the venue by 8:30. They made us to stand in queue and since i had a Kid ( below 5 yrs ) they let me in soon. Guys if you have a kid, pls take them with you. You can skip some serious wait time. The heat too one unbearable. As soon as we stepped in a person asked us to arrange the docs as per L1B blanket norms. 8 pages I129S, 1 page, I797, DS160 confirmation page ( Primary app ), DD. If you are going for L1 B visa, Pls arrange this set at home itself. It may avoid some confusion there. Again we skipped the queue and went directly to get the receipt of DD. Then our finger print scanned and we went directly to main interview. All this process took 15 mins.

VO : Passports Pls ( looked strict and very precise )

Me : GM

VO : Indian Salary

Me : Replied

VO : US Sal ?

Me : Replied ( He was typing something in his PC )

VO : Petitioner

Me : Replied

VO : Role

Me : Answered

VO : Specialised Skill

Me : Replied

VO : See iam not aware of ur process and dont even have an account. So can you pls explain in simple terms on what work you will do in US.

Me : Explain Products i will work on

VO : Looked Convinced and Stamped the docs. I knew he will approve

VO : Kept 1 copy and passports and asked whether all 3 will be travelling.

Me : Yes sir

VO : I have approved your Visa

Me : Thank you

Your company reputation is the key here guys and secondly you salary and the way you present your explanation in interview. I have seen some folks getting rejected as they were not able to explain clearly ( Not sure is it the exact reason ). Be bold as i said before. Dont take situation to take control of you. Coz if you are not good at handling pressure, then you are loosing out urself. All the best guys. Hope this might have helped.

L1B Blanket approved at Chennai Consulate
Of course like everyone else has mentioned, this site was of immense help for me when I was preparing for my VISA interview. Sharing my experience though there was nothing out of the ordinary in my interview.

I was applying for L1B Blanket & L2 for my Spouse & kids.

27th Sept : Biometrics. Happened pretty smoothly.

28th Sept : Appointment was @ 9:30, reached there around 20 mins early since I was staying close by. Stood in the designated queue for a few minutes before a guy saw us with Small kids & asked us to skip the queue. From there on we skipped multiple queues.

First up post the queue was arranging the documents. Did that & then stood in the queue for paying the fee. After that we were again asked to skip the queue & directly go to the next available VO.

ME : Good Morning!
VO : Good Morning!

VO : Can I have your documents?
ME : Sure. Here you go.

VO : So you work for ZZZ?
ME : Yes.

VO : How long?
ME : 4 Years.

VO : Do they have a office in YYYY X?
ME : Yes.

VO : What's your role there?
ME : Explained about role & specialization. I was about to start about development of some new stuff (VO Interrupted & then asked me to continue since she was about to ask about the same thing).

VO : What's your salary there?
ME : $ZZZ + Benefits

VO : How long would you be there?
ME : The assignment is for 2 years.

VO : How old are these guys (pointing to my kids)?
ME : told their ages & also asked my son to tell her how old he is.

ME : "Naughty bunch" I said
VO : "They won't agree"

VO : Stamps the docs & says "I'm approving your VISA, You will receive your passport in a few days"
ME : Thanks a lot.

Tips :
Confidence though I was sweating like a pig (partly due to Chennai heat & partly nervousness inside.
Never fumbled.
Smile.
The person before me was rejected (Hair dresser) too many red flags like low salary etc.
Be prepared to explain about your specialization if they ask.

I'm bad at sharing experiences but I wanted to share it here since this site was extremely helpful. Let me know if you guys have any questions & I might respond occasionally in the forum (no emails pls).
