Your name: Narasimha
Appointment location: Monterrey
Appointment dates: Dec 1,2
Current visa stamped in passport category ? H4
Previous visa in passport ? B1/B2
Wife on H1 and she never went out of the country since she moved to US (About 5 years). I walked in alone for H4 extension, based on my spouse H1 approval (extension)
Questions asked during interview:
- A lot of questions were clarifications as the Consulate Officerwanted to get the case right
“What is the latest status of your spouse Visa?”
“How often do you visit the US before you convert to H4 from B1/B2”
“What is your spouse’s latest stamped date?”
“How did you meet your spouse”
“Are you applying for a fresh H4 or renewal” – Mine was renewed after COS. So took a while for Consulate Officerto comprehend
“what time is your flight tomorrow”
I am typing only the questions that are on top of my head. But we had a good 20 – 30 minutes conversation.
If the Consulate Officer is asking a lot of questions, it is only to make sure that they do not find a reason to reject your case. So be patient, stay cool and explain as patiently as you can. Most importantly DONT FAKE anything. I had a lot of questions, but the tone and intent was positive. The Consulate Officer at some point told me she is not finding a way to enter my case dates and approve, so she has to get someone to help her and finally told me she approved my case.
Documents asked during visa interview: I-797 (mine and spouse), copy of last visa of spouse, marriage certificate
