Hi,
Today was a tiring day, but the end result was Good. And I have heard all that ends well is Good.
I had an appointment at 11 at US Consulate, reached there at 10:30. Till 12:30 did lot of Masti, cracking jokes and having fun outside the consulate, thanks to the heavy rush.
Managed to get in at 12:45. And than after the fingerprinting. Sat on a chair. Thanks to Sandeep's company we were chatting and yapping and didnt realise as time passed by.
At 2:21 our token numbers were called. We both went to the window where we saw a young Guy (consular officer). I went in first and the following conversation took place:
Q. Have u ever been to US before
A. No
Q. Which company u work for?
A. XYZ
Q. Since How Long? (I got scared as saying 3 months cud be negative for me)
A. November 2005
Q. Why did u stick to a company for so many years.
A. I am working here since November 2005!
Q. Ohh I thought 1995, Your brother is in US?
A. Yes, he is working on H1B. (I added) I also have an valid H1b done by my previous employer.
Q. What happened to that.
A. They wanted to send me in January, but before that I had another offer in Mumbai itself which was better and I could get exposure to Good enterprise level projects. So I took it up.
The officer stamped cancelled on my H1b, I realised i was thru. :)
Q. Has your company sent an invitation letter.
A. Yes, I gave it to him
He kept them and said I Issue U a visa, U will get by courier
