Visa Approved at Ottawa on 8th April Full Time Employee

[04082013]

Hi Friends,

When I was at Embassy for my interview on 8th April at Ottawa between 9 to 10.30 AM around 5 to 6 H1b Visa was approved including mine.

Mostly People were EVC Model or so but I am full time employee of University in IT department.

I did not speak to anyone out there.

First there is security Check at Entrance similar to airport one.

Then you walk to a officer where she takes your Passport, Appointment Letter to Embassy, DS 160, I 797 and Photo.

She will ask you to go to counter where you will get Token Number. In my case it was counter 1.

@ Counter one officer takes Passport, DS 160, I 797 and Photo.

He asked letter from Employer and I gave him my Letter from HR, Project Manager and Offer Letter.

In return he gives you Token Number, a laminated paper which describe about finger prints.

Then counter 5 will take your finger print.

Counter 2, 3, and 4 were calling for interview.

I was called at Counter 4.

I went without way bill but I took copy of DS 160 where we get reference id.

The guy gave me passport by using reference id.

I took bus from ottawa to NY by 8.00 PM and by 5.30 AM on 10 April i was at NYC.

It took me exactly 2 days.
