Hi ALL,

Congrats All Who got H1.
I attended the interview on 2nd Dec'2007,VO issued 221(g) Blue form asking some petitioners docs.
Submitted the docs on 13th Dec'2007 with ppt.
After waiting 2 months again i got another 221(g) on this Friday marked as AAP.

Can anyone tell how much time it takes to clear this.

I made a speeling mistake while entering the name of the person "To Whom I am going to stay in US", in DS156 and submitted and my interview is confirmed.
So how can i change surname "yalla" to "yella".

Thanks and Regards
Ram

Hi Ram,

I have attended my interview on 8th Feb and got 221G.

I need some info regarding time required for 221g processing. I have been following this site from past 6 months, I could see that 221g is taking soo much time. But I think in your case it took less than one month to get the VISA after submitting your documents. So could you please let me know what would be the minimum and maximum duration of time for 221g once we submit out doc's.

In my case VO asked me to submit all the docs from petitioner side, and passport also. At present I am waiting for Unemployment wages report. I would be getting that in a weeks time. So if I submit my passport after a week, how long it might take (approxmately) to get my VISA?

I have been reading all your reply's and appriciate you for that :)

Raghu

Any one Please send me the comments on my case.

Hi Aneel,
I also got 221G like u,they sent my documents to USCIS.After 6 months i got a mail from USCIS saying that we reviewed ur documents and ur case got approved.Now i am waiting for Approval letter from USCIS(I-797).Once i got that i have to attend the embassy i think,

Hi,

I would highly appericiate if someone can help me about H4 stamping in Chennai Consulate.

I recently came to the states a week before in H1 visa which I stamped in Nov 2006 and my employment and SSN are under processing. I wanted to do H4 for my wife ASAP. Can I apply H4 for my wife without my Payslips.
If not how many pay slips are exactly required for H4 visa.

If anyone have the same experiance kindly share with me.

Thanks,
Sundar

Dear friends,

Me & my wife appeared for H1 & H4 at the same time. I got 221(g) and now my wife has travelled to another country. Does she need to be present personally for H4 stamping or is it acceptable if I carry her passport?

Look forward to know your opinions/advise.

Thanks for help,
Sampat

Recently i got 221(g) and there was nothing written on the form about the passport(Whether i have to send passport or not). When i contact to vfs they told that we have to send passport.

Some of my friends told if we drop the passport(even though if there is not written on the blue form) they will send another 221(g) stating that your case is under AAP.

So please seniors help me whether i should go according to vfs or my friends advice who got the same similar experience.

Thanks to all people.
