Hey Folks,

Thanks a lot for all of your wishes for the interview and in this process till now. Thanks for your help.

On 19th Jan, 2011 I had my interview at mumbai consulate. It went well but they asked me lot of questions about how did you guys met? Where did you get married? When did you both meet and where? They saw marriage albums. They also asked question which was very surprising to me, although they know about the ceremony, they wanted to confirm if I know about my own marriage or not? So they asked me how many 'Fera's' (circles around fire) did you make? Who led at the end ? (Those who are hindu will know about this). - I gave the answer as 4 feras.

Other than that the whole interview was very fruity. They asked me some questions about H1-B my student status in USA. Why I left USA?

Anyways at the end she told me that she is approving my visa and that I will get my passport within the mail after 2-3 days.

Although, I had already tracked the passport from VFS-USA website. It says it has been delivered to blue dart.

Congratulations to those who got their visa, best luck to those who are still awaiting for their turn.
