john_bro Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Hi, @Nagkarjun - Was yours a first time visa Stamping (F to H1B)? Hey do you know if our Visa is rejected or goes to 221 (g) .. can we enter US and wait here in USA while working? Anyone else knows the answer .. please let me know. Link to comment
aboppana Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 john_bro if the visa is rejected or or 221(g), one cannot enter into US without valid visa in the passport. Automatic Visa Revalidation (AVR) can only be used when not attended US consulate. Link to comment

chinnikrishnav Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 Hi there, My appointment was at 8am today. I went in at 7.30am. No bags or backpacks allowed inside the embassy. Cellphones can be kept in the locker at the entrance of the building. After clearing the security, I was asked to show Passport, I797 and the DS160 confirmation page. Then I was directed to a window where I was asked my employer letter, I provided my employer's and the end client's. I was given a yellow color token n a while laminated sheet which says we will be punished by law if we give false finger prints. n I was asked to wait for finger printing n intw. After finger printing, I was called for intw. Here how it went: We greeted each other with good morning. Q1:What do you do? Q2:Asked about the technology I work in. Q3: So are you working with XXX company? Q4: How long? Q5: Who did you work for before? He took few secs to enter something in the system and said my visa has been approved n gave a sheet with instructions to track the passport. My case is, 4years on H1, 3yrs in US with a BEP company, changed job 1yr back to a mid sized comp kinda Prime vendor. Hope I helped. Good luck to the future US visa aspirants. Link to comment
