Hello All,
I done my master in USA and I had been working for a big five company as a a full time USA employee,(So, no legal or employer Issues) I came to India for my visa stamping.
I had my Visa H1b interview 2/10/2015, They had given me 221(g) white slip with two options marked in it
a) The very first option that I will receive an update by email and II can follow my case and
b) Last but one option that my case is going through administrative processing and my decision is pending.
and updated me that my visa is being additional administrative processing.
During the interview the interviewer asked me following below questions.
