Hi WeDesified, that’s nice video with good information. Myself Naresh. I have few questions related to Dropbox. Pls answer my questions. I had previously my L1 visa issued in 2017 and expired in 2020. And it’s the same with my wife as L2. Q1. My H1B lottery got picked this year. Do we need to go for biometrics as I understand we r eligible for interview waiver ? Q2. We don’t have children when we got L1/L2 visas. Now we have kid without any Visa. Is he also eligible for Dropbox without any biometrics ? Q3. I stay in Bangalore. Do we have Dropbox location in Bangalore ? Thanks in advance

Hi Apoorva, Question on Visa Dropbox Eligibility. My last visa status L1B and it was stamped in Germany(year-2020), last year I moved to H1B, As it was change of status from L1 to H1, I didn't stepout from the country. I was in assumption that I am not eligible for the dropbox, but my appointment has been booked as dropbox only. someone told me recently that, uscis initially is giving dropbox to everyone but they call for in-person interview when there is a change of visa status after ~1 week of dropbox appointment. I tried reaching out to ustraveldocs but their reply was not concrete enough to take any decision. Could you please help me here by sharing your experience/knowledge. Thanks in advance.
