Dear Friends, Im travelling to US for a 1st time, I worked for citibank NA in india for 5 years and last year I started my own company which is a Subsidary of US company, They have 60% share in my company and I'm a Director for APAC region, Im 29 years old going to get married in Sep 2012, I've my own property worth 1.5 crores, Having bank balance of 5 lak and fixed deposit and mutual funds around 2 lak, I've going to US for a business development discussion, and meet up with few local Clients etc.. I got a invitation letter from US parent company and my Interview is on 21st June 2012. Can you guide me what are the chances of Me getting the visa , what I should be carefull about in the interview ? The US company is started in 2010 and not a popular company will that affect my Visa application.

Need your guidence

Ask for a short stay of say 2 weeks or less. Long stays of several weeks are looked at with
suspicion ( misuse of B1 for work).

They will ask you about your company and the US parent company. You better know inside out of the work you are doing and the DETAILS OF THE WORK YOU WILL BE DOING WHILE IN US.
Be precise and concrete . Any vague answers will be risky.
If you can show good balance sheets and strong IT return of your own.
Bank balance, property , they do not look at but INCOME IS VERY IMPORTANT.

You can also visit the US embassy New Delhi website, visa section. There are
details about what to prepare for a business visa( B1).

See you should take advice before taking an appointment whether you should apply or not.
Now you are asking on the forum when your interview is on 21st.

In your situation you should not be applying.

Reasons;
No ITR, Company less than one year old.
The officer will say your company has not taken off here , why are you going to US?

Income and its proof is most important.(ITR)
they won't look at credit card, bank balance .

Sir, I can tell them its a subsidary of US company and it holds 60 % share in my comnpany and we are going to have a network in USA with local business people for lesuire tour packages etc, Infact I was constantly in touch with US Trade council and they only organized for BUSINESS MEETINGS WITH AMERICAN CLIENT.

Yes my company is new - To expand it only Im going know - Ideally they should consider it. When my company is up and running well why should I get a US clients?
