GC96 Posted September 22, 2017 Report Posted September 22, 2017 I had interview at 10:15am. we went early around 9:30 but security guard said come back around 10:00. so we went there at 10:00. Note please don't go early 15 minutes before your interview time. after security check we were told to go to counter 6 or 7. where they check DS-160 , passport, photoes and I-797. Once that is complete instructed to go to counter 4 for finger prints. Next comes the long line for visa interview. we had to wait for 10-15 minutes and then our turn came for interview with lady officer on counter 2. she asked for passport and i-797 for H1 b applicant. at that time my daughter started crying so we asked if she could give us pen or something she can play with she gave us sticky note pad and my daughter started playing with it. following are the Questions asked: Is it renewal? when did you start working on H1-b? i said month and year. how many years is that? do you work for xxx employer? what do you do for your employer? what is your highest degree? what is your current salary? did you paid any fees for visa? can you give me your LCA? she said your visa is approved and you can get your passport back in 3-4 days. That was it. she did not asked any questions to my spouse and this was my first time stamping(COS-F1 to H1). if anyone has any questions please feel free to message me. Thanks.

Not rejections usually they gave 221G slips and rejection for visitor visa. the guy before me was confusing visa officer with his answer so that's the reason he got pink slip.
