Hello Seniors/Murali/Simran,

I appeared interview at Chennai on 11th Dec., my int. was more than half an hour, i didn't carry my company last 2 years Tax papers, Wage reports & Inhouse Project Description.

The VO has issued Blue form with ticks at the above documents and written Reference number on top of the page.

At the last she said some thing but i was unable to hear to her.

Now i have doubts i have to drop documents at VFS Hyd. with passport or without.

Nothing has written on back side of Blue form.

Let me know i have to drop my petitionars documents along with same DS 156, 157 LCA, I797 & Passport.

YOUR SUGGESTIONS ARE APPRECIATED VERY MUCH.

Regards.
Rao. V.

I think you should go to the consulate with all the documents and get it cleared from the authorities while dropping the documents.
I am sure someone will guide you there. Don't just drop all your documents without informing the consulate people.

Do you have same experience????????????

One of my friend got too nervous to hear what the VO said after seeing the 221(g) form. I advised him the same thing, he got the visa stamped in the next 2 weeks and is flying in Feb 08.

So don't bother. Chillax... Smile and go to the consulate.
All the best dude.

Got visa stamped after getting blue 221(g) for AAP on NOV 19th,2007


Hi all,

I m also a victim of 221(g). So the following is what happened to me since I booked my date for visa interview till the visa got stamped.

1. Received my papers from my employer on NOV 17th

2. Booked for an interview date on NOV 19th CHENNAI CONSULATE (morning 10.45 AM appointment)

3. I was issued a 221(G) blue form for AAP (additional admin processing).they collected my original DS156, DS157, I-797, I-129, and LCA, US employer details such as: client letter, w2 report(wage report ). Employee’s details, it returns, photographs,
They didn’t collected my passport

Returned back to Bangalore with disappointment!!!!

4. I received a courier from US consulate on Nov 29th which contained another blue color 221(g) with checklist marked for submitting my passport along with I-797, I-129, LCA, New DS156,DS157. Also they returned back I-797, I-129, LCA & my US employer details such as: client letter, Employee’s details, it returns.

5) Dec 3rd morning I took the print out of DS-156, DS-157 which l already had. I went to VFS office, Bangalore around 10am to submit above mentioned things. But there was surprise waiting for me. They told I need to fill new DS-156 (but not the old one which we submit for the first time) and she gave the website where I can fill new DS-156 https://evisaforms.state.gov/. Later I filled new DS-156 and came back to VFS office again around 2.25pm in afternoon and submitted my passport along with I-797, I-129, LCA, Newly filled DS156, and DS157 and paid 155rs fees

6) Dec 7th .today afternoon I received my passport with VISA stamped till Jan 2007 to October 2010


now planning to fly around FEb20th,2008

So never loose hopes if Ur true & Ur Us employer to be of genuine. Things will fall in your way

Regards,
Sumanth

Congratulations for the stamp sumanth!!
I need one answer from you. Did you take client offer letter or offer letter from the consultant?
If it is from client,
How did you manage to get one?
I was trying for it for more than 2 months but was not able to get one.
Is the client important to get the stamp?
