Visa interview appointment was through scratch card process.
My case is H4 to H1B. Paid $131 fee, they asked for usual set of documents - Passport, I-797, recent paystubs(had recent three pay stubs), Copy of LCA. They also asked about University in India from where I got my MCA degree. Then came the difficult part - PIMS verification. They told me it takes 48 to 72 hrs to get a confirmation from their internal process and gave me back all the documents. This happened on Monday, on Wednesday morning got a call from Embassy stating confirmation from PIMS is through, went back to Embassy submitted the fee receipt and passport. By 9.30am got passport with visa stamped(our flight leaves by 2pm so they made this arrangement, normally the passports are available to collect between 1 and 2.30pm only).
Bahamas is a great place to stay, we really enjoyed our stay.
