We will discuss about 221g Interview After Dropbox in this blog. Since September 1st, 2019, you will have to book appointment for Dropbox interview if you are eligible. It is mandatory. Most of the people get visa stamping through dropbox easily. The success rate is high. It is time saving and avoids travelling.
But sometimes you may not get visa using dropbox. We have observed that many people have got 221g and have been called for interview. One of my friend had similar situation and had to attend visa interview after he got 221g in dropbox. According to him, he had all the required documents but they called him for face to face interview.

H1b Visa interview: January 13, 2021
What Happens And What is the Process at the US Consulate for Visa Interview with 221g letter.
My friend told me that it was very easy process at the US consulate after they called you for interview. You don’t have to book an appointment for stamping. The 221(g) form will have instruction that you can directly go for the interview on any business days. Biometric was not needed for him. So it was very quick and easy for him. In most of the cases i don’t think they will ask for biometrics. I have never heard that they have asked for biometric after dropbox.
