Visa extension - Dropbox or Interview

[musingsinsky]

Hi - I'll be travelling to India during  July and need to get H1B visa stamped. 

Qualified for dropbox - however my attorney recommended to avail for interview.

Here are my questions

• Is there a general uptick in interview follow-up to original dropbox document submission?  
• Couldn’t see a way to by-pass dropbox and set up an interview from ustraveldocs website.(unless you answer qualifying questions incorrect  - which isn't recommended)

Should I go with dropbox or is there an option to avail for interview?

I'm a full time in a US based company (no client-vendor relationship) and been with them for 6+ years and already have prior visa stamped with same employer.

Now a days even you go for drop box they are asking to come for interview. More cases are happening...

If you are qualified for drop box you cannot go for interview. No option.
