Everyone, I finally received my stamped passport! Thanks to this forum and all you people, I managed to get through this ordeal ! I wish everyone waiting on their visas all the very best!

@vijaisekar : EC model and neither my employer nor my client were contacted.

Here's an update on my case: I got an email from VFS stating the following Your passport with ref no XXXXXXXXXXXX is ready for delivery by courier except H.A.L.You may also collect it Today from the VFS Chennai centre between 4 p.m. - 5 p.m. Please note this is an auto generated e-mail. Please do NOT reply to this email Interview Date: 12/02/2011 221g Green slip with passport: Petitioner related documents Docs submitted: 12/23/2011 Email receipt about passport delivery: 02/21/2012 Calendar days: 60 Hoping this is good news! I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Will keep you posted.

7+ weeks for me and no news yet. Did you try inquiring through your attorney or a congressional representative?

Yes, my case is EC model and it is my first H1b stamping (F1 to H1) . Is it known to take longer if it is first time stamping?

Anyone with 221g green got visa approved after 6 weeks with passport submission. It has been 6 weeks since my passport +docs were submitted. So I'm wondering if it means a rejection? I've been reading on forums that it takes 4 to 6 weeks to get a response.

Any news yet about your visa? I've been waiting 5 weeks now.

Anyone with 221 G green slips in December at Chennai? Please update your status here!!!!!!

@221Green: All the best! @cool_arian: Did you submit your passport with the docs? I submitted passport + docs on Dec. 23rd. If you haven't got a response, I can hardly expect one!

@Vishal2011, I was asked to submit 1. A copy of the petition with all supporting documents as filed to USCIS 2. A copy of the employment contract or letter of agreement signed by you and the petitioner 3. Petitioner’s Income Tax Return for the last two tax years and financial statements 4. A notarized list of all the petitioner’s employees of the job site listed. The list should show all employee’s names, their specific job titles, start and end dates, and their individual salaries and immigration status 5. A copy of the contract between the U.S. employment agency(petitioner) and the job site(the location where you will actually work) 6. A letter (on letterhead) from personnel department at the U.S. job site stating that there is a vacancy for you. In addition I was asked to submit Passport, DS 160 confirmation page, I797, LCA, I129. My petitioner and I have the same last name as we are cousins. So I'm not sure how long they will take to confirm that everything is legitimate

That was a really quick turnaround! Congratulations and have a safe flight! Hoping my case gets resolved soon!

My Case at Chennai Consulate: Visa Interview Date : 12/02/2011 221 g Green Slip: No Passport Docs requested : Petitioner related. I have a question. The back of the Green slip has some documents checked off ( not by VO but on the sheet itself) - DS 160 confirmation page, passport etc. The VO did not specifically tell me to send my passport, but since it has been checked off should I send my passport? What are the chances of getting my visa stamped after a green slip? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Lil
