hitesh, most of the points are covered by the people in above thread...! let me add up some more comfort for you. carry all the documents which you have prepared in a folder which has plastic partitions, if possible make little notations on the folder eg: fixed assets, bank statements, investment proofs, ITR for past 3 years, travel tickets round trip, if you have booked a holiday package then please carry that as well. the idea is to keep all organized. they would decide your visa much in advance (based on your info provided on visa form) and only screen you on personal interview which in most of the cases is not more then 90 sec...yes you read is right its 90 sec only. i have renewed my visa 3 times (2 work and 1 B1/B2) so i have experienced this before. DO NOT PUSH YOU FILE ON THE COUNTER, SHOW IT ONLY WHEN THEY ASK "SIR DO YOU CARRY YOUR INCOME STATEMENT" THEN SAY "YES SIR I DO WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE", SHOW ONLY IF HE/ SHE SAY SO. they dont like people being pushing for things, only show the document which is been asked for. they want to see you confident....! so prepare for all the questions which i have listed out below. they may ask which places do you intend to visit, pls remember the names of the places you intend to visit. i am giving you few questions which you may consider to practice before you go for interview. please pratice this questions before, you and your wife sould be able to answer the questions same way. iam serious about this questions as they ask this questions for people who intend to travel as FIT (free individual travels) and not through travel agents travel plans. so please make the answers ready and pls carry a mock run for few times between you and your wife, remember practice makes you perfect and that adds your confidence at the visa center. avoid pregent pauses like ahh....! hummmm...! why would you like to travel to United states? what is your job profile? how long do you intend to stay in United states? do you have confirm return tickets? how much do you earn? what is your annual income? if you travel for 20 days who would look after the business? do you have credit card? will you really come back? what is the total cost of your package? how long is your package valid for? which airline you flying with? what is the date of arrivals in US? do you have friends and family in US? yes for friends and BIG NO for relatives. where would you be staying in US? why dont you travel through travel agents? why your family not travelling with you? (they have to take care of your business see question no 9) what is your total expenses in USA during your stay? have you traveled any other country? dont worry, your profile is best and they wont deny it as they need people to travel to US and spend money out here. now about your child who is below 14 years, you may take along as far as you have filled in the form and have paide the VFS fees, unless they dont allow you for some real serious reasons, let me know i am just round the cornor of US consulate. PM if you need some help, my office is just behind the consulate. i will do baby sitting for your kid dont worry. the finger impression is at trade center which is about a 1 km from the visa center. \ do not drive unless you have driver, they don allow cars to even stop near the facility. getting rickshaw is good option, if you have driver tell him to park on trident hilton lane which is opposite to the visa center, its walking for about 4 - 6 mins. if you still need any help please let me know. all the best.

no it was same for dad biometric 1 day prior to appointment biometric wont take much time but visa appointment will take your time actual interview takes hardly 5-10 min depend on US guy you need to que up in front of the us consulate where the consulate person will scan your appointment letter for barcode (this happen 30 min prior to your appointment reporting time if you reach early you have to wait but reconfirm this timing on consulate site there is no waiting area so you need to stand across the consulate on road ..since you have kiddo with you) then you proceed inside consulate ... other members can guide how process done inside consulate as i have not yet been inside cab is better as you wont have to be worried about parking its always difficult to find parking spot in BKC and consulate area but make sure you dont carry phones or any other expensive material except your paper in transparent folder or file. avoid taking wife purse too they might not allow it. just check the allowed item list. i think so your full family interview will be together. Edit : Please Do consider mumbai traffic. If you travel by car. There is pay park behind ICICI bank HQ in BKC you can take rick from there. hopefully Mumbai rimwebian could suggest closer spot. Ps. My Bro is US citizen

All the Best Hitesh Bhai ... Hari ji covered the whole process.. since you center is in mumbai keep in mind Us consulate and biometric center is 1 km apart not walkable but rick is available near biometric center there is visa appoint assistance center if you are not traveling by your car n driver you can take their services on visa interview date (for charges) i think they cover transportation from biometric center to consulate and back coupon include snacks and coffee .. advantage is they have ac waiting lounge near biometric center and also have services to make any correction (in required) in your visa application. (please carry enough xerox as no one is near by. if you have your own vehicle and driver then all is not required. also make sure to tell you driver not to park near us consulate .. even if he is sitting in car challan fat jata hai ... last yr done dad's visa so noted this point in mind i am currently in pune but if you need any help mumbai let me know keep smiling and get ready for trip ps. also take courier services for ur passport for delivery after stamping it always turned out to be cheaper.

Dont worry. There is nothing you have to be concerned. I had just now got Business visa for 10 yrs. Day 1 : You have biometric in TPL house cenatoph road, chennai. Its just a 1 minute process. You have to be there at spot before 30 mins. There your photo. Thumb impressions everything will be taken. Day 2 : is the visa interview. Its in US consaulate, Gemini fly over chennai. There try to come before 2 hours. Also please note, dont even take your mobile or wallet along with you. Just take the money you needed to go back in you pocket. Because if you have something you need to keep it in an outside locker. Which I didnt feel safe, even though I have seen people keeping there. There after usual security checks, You will be given a token number. Once they call, you will be interviewd by an US guy. There is nothing as such as interview. Mostly they will be asking your purpose of visit. Where you are visiting and your relation with person over there. Dont worry. The key point should be confidence - Say answers with confidence but never forget to have a smiling face for every answer. Even when your turn comes, just wish the person with a smile. mostly they wont check your documents and this visa interview will be over by 5 mins. Also give them a positive thinking that for sure you will come back to India :-) Also check this site, it gives the experience of people who went for interview before http://www.immihelp.com/experience/view-1-72-business_visa_b1visa.html

AFAIk,there is no solution at present.There are many more other tutorials which don't work.
