  • Kolkata Consulate - 221g then Rejection on EVC. Applied new H1- EC Model-Visa Stamped

    So here is my detailed story
    I came to India in the first week of may ( on EVC) and went to Kolkata for stamping because it seems to be the safest. In my first interview VO gave me 221g and asked to submit all employer docs. I went to the consulate again on 25th May and submitted all docs, VO took the documents and interviewed me again ( Note: Only Kolkata consulate does another interview after 221g so your changes of a quick response are high). VO told me that my documents dont correctly represent employer/employee relationship and hence he is denying my Visa.
    My Client asked another Vendor to apply for my visa so I could be in EC model. Vendor applied H1 under premium processing and I got the H1 approval in 4 days. Then I went again to Kolkata consulate ( since in most cases they take another interview if you get 221g) this time the interview was smooth,here is how it went
    VO: Tell me what you do
    Me: Told
    VO: What is your highest qualification
    Me: MBA
    VO: For how long you are doing this?
    Me : told. Mentioned that for the past 3 years I had been in US
    VO: Are you gonna work at client site?
    Me: YEs, told her that the SOW is part of the documents
    VO: Your Visa is approved!

    Next day ,I collected the passport in person from VFS office in Kolkata

    Feel free to ask me any questions you have. Thanks

    I got a 221G from the kolkata consulate due to my client and vendor name not being mentioned in my USCIS Support letter. They took all my documents including 797, I-129 everything except my passport. I am in EVC model.

      H1B Stamping Documents List

      Hello Experts,
      I am currently in US since 2008 and want to go for Visa Stamping to India. I came to US through an Indian IT Giant, and then quit around 8 months back. I dont have the Experience Certificate from my company. Would that matter? I guess that is the only document I dont have. I have all the Paystubs, and a letter from the company which states that I am working with them since so and so date but this cannot be used as an experience certificate.

      Would there be any problem in stamping??? Typically, howmany days does it take to get the Passport back? Can I pick it up personally?

      Kindly Let me know.

      Thanks in Advance.
      Rahul
