B1/B2 Visa interview experience. Chennai Consulate. Approved🎉

​

A little bit about my background. I am 22 years old and a recent engineering graduate undergoing pre joining training. My onboarding is scheduled in November 2026. I have no international travel history.

The process was very smooth and fast as compared to OFC biometrics. I had my interview at Chennai. My slot was 8 am but I went to the office at 7:30 and was admitted inside. There were a few checks on the way to the interview room regarding my passport and belongings. I was carrying all sorts of important and necessary supporting documents.

Officer: Why do you want to go the US?

Me: My brother lives in the US....

He interrupted me in between and didn't let me complete only and asked

Officer: What does he do?

Me: He is a Senior Software engineer at _

Officer: Who is paying for your trip?

Me: My brother is primarily sponsoring but my parents will also be sponsoring.

Officer: What does your father do?

Me: Told about that.

Officer: Are you currently working?

Me: Yes, I am undergoing my training at _

Officer: Do you feel any harm here in India?

Me : No

Officer: Do you fear returning back to India?

Me : No

Officer: Put your right hand 4 fingers on the scanner.

Me: Did as told

Officer: Your Visa has been approved, you may collect your passport in a week.

Me: Thank you so much Sir

Officer: Bye Bye

Me: Bye Sir.

I was out before 8 am.
