221(g) in 2019

Posted by: yellow_red
Interview Date:
12/23/2019
Embassy/Consulate:
India : Hyderabad
Visa Center:
India : Hyderabad
Document Submission Date:
12/29/2020
Passport Collected:
No
Notes:
This was my first H-1B stamping. Section 221(g) was likely applied because aerospace engineering (my area of work) is included in the Technology Alert List. It took six weeks from the submission of additional documents to the visa issuance. In comparison, it took three weeks when 221(g) was applied to my F-1 visa seven years ago. The interviewer asked basic questions (educational degrees, job designation, salary) and handed back my passport and a white-color 221(g) sheet. I received an email 6 hours after the interview requesting me to submit (via email) my CV, research details, list of publications, and a letter from my company explaining my job duties. 2019-12-20 OFC Appointment 2019-12-23 Consular Appointment 2019-12-29 Submission of Additional Documents 2020-02-03 Email requesting me to submit passport 2020-02-04 Submission of passport to VAC/VFS 2020-02-11 Receipt of passport and visa
