[IronFist007]

Hi Friends,

Location: Vancouver, Canada

My visa was approved on Nov 28th & received the passport on Nov 30th.

My interview was at 10:30AM but went to the consulate at 8:30AM.

Security person asked for the Passport, DS-Form 160 & I 797 & he checked on my name in the list he had.

Then there was a female security lady who asked whether I had any cell phone, I wasn't carrying.

After that stood in line for 15 minutes then they were allowing batch of 4 people inside, there it was like airport Security check almost. After that entered a room & there was a counter where they collect the passport I797 & do the data entry there and give you a token number. After that once entered into the system there will be another line for lift where the interview is held in the 20th floor. After going to the 20th floor, in counter number 3 finger prints (all to fingers) are taken. After 20 minutes my number was called at counter number 6.
