Interview location and Experience at Delhi, India My parents have the interview scheduled for the next week at Delhi. I am not sure what kind of questions are usually asked. Is it just a document verification? What is the primary intent of the interview? Can anyone with experience let me know...

Medical Exam, Finger Printing at VAC and Actual Interview I am an US citizen. My parents are at the tail end of the CP process. NVC has scheduled the interview. I am little confused about the "Finger Printing (Biometric)" appointment. Should it be scheduled by us ahead of the interview date...

I believe that the passport offices are now responsible to provide the police clearance certificates (PCC) in India. Go to the passport sewa kendra (PSK) website and register for your dad. Search for PCC. I don't think there would be any need to go to the local police station. There is little...

Hi, I just submitted DS260 online for my parents. Now, I am finding that police clearance form is required. Too bad I should have checked earlier. In India, PSK provides the clearance. Does anyone know what is the trick to get the appointment scheduled? Whenever I try, I get a message that...

This is a CP case. I am applying for both of my parents and am not able to decide which form should I choose - I-864 or I-864EZ. Here is the snippet from NVC: Complete I-864EZ if All three of the following are true: You filed a Form I-130 petition for your relative, and there is only one...

Hi Galapagos, I am in the similar stage. Paid the $88 fee few weeks back and was waiting for the next steps. Now, I am realizing that there is no need to wait. I can go ahead and submit I864. Is it your understanding as well? Were you able to see if I864 or I864EZ applies in your case? I am...

Passport renewal - Gujrat to UP I have opted for CP for my parents and we are preparing to respond to some RFEs. It would be about 2 months before we get to have an US embassy appointment for them. However, we are in a fix due to a passport situation. Their original passports were issued from...

I was just not sure as some of the posts in this forum indicated that notarization is not needed. Thanks.

I am preparing to send I-130 from my parents. In that process, I have to go affidavit route for their marriage certificate. Do we need that affidavit notarized? They will do CP in India. I have got the affidavit template from the post #4 in this thread.

Received OCI Registration Card (booklet), US Passport with U Visa and the Cancelled Indian Passport. I guess this is it. Thanks to the forum and all who helped in the process directly and indirectly.

How long it takes for OCI to reach me after SF has received. Isn't it overnight express envelope that we send?

Is it just me or everyone thinks that OCI processing is pretty fast now.

Sent the OCI application on 3/12 with both the passports. I included the express mail envelope and paid $18 for it. However, I didn't see the clerk put any stamp on the envelope. He just put a multipart label where I put from and to addresses. Is this how it goes?

Hi Friends, I recently became USC and wanted to start on GC for my parents. However, I am little confused on which way to proceed. My parents have multiple entry vistior visa that will be valid for another 5 years. They went back from US just 3 weeks back (little b4 my oath ceremony) and...

He can apply under the 3 year rule and if all other conditons are met, he can send the application 3 months before the completion of 3 years. His wife doesn't need to accompany him.
