Friends Please don't take the "desi" remark too seriously. I only meant that since we have so much red tape in India, we Indians tend to take every little rule seriously and increase our stress in the process. As far as this PCC is concerned, it definitely seems to be valid for only SIX...

Very inconsistent I am now convinced that the Chennai consulate is indeed telling people that the PCC validity is 6 months. However, this is only adding to the confusion. What if someone just went by what is on their webpage? After all, not everybody makes phone calls or sends emails to the...

Get a new one if you have time I just heard from several people who attended interviews recently (over email) - many of them had PCCs that were older than 6 months, and many saw others with PCCs that were as old as 9 months (at the consulate). I am quite sure the Chennai Customer Service...

Job description Virginia Boy, As cpdelhi said, there is no one format for the employment letter. Usually there are no details about the job description. The matching of your credentials with a vacant position in the company etc are done in the earlier stages (labor, 140 etc), so there is...

Here is what the webpage for Chennai consulate says: INDIAN POLICE CLEARANCE CERTIFICATES SHOULD BE OBTAINED AS FOLLOWS: -- All Indian IV applicants age 16 and above, residing in India, should obtain police certificates from the local passport office. Applicants whose Indian passport was...

PCC is valid for 1 year I really doubt that the PCC validity is 6 months. I get the impression that people are either misinformed or are creating mischief. So many people attended the interview at Chennai recently. Most of them went with the impression that the validity is one year. If there...

PCC I really doubt that the PCC validity is 6 months. I get the impression that people are either misinformed or are creating mischief. So many people attended the interview at Chennai recently. Most of them went with the impression that the validity is one year. If there was any issue at...

Stop worrying, guys! I don't think the review time at NVC has gone up significantly. Here are the dates for a colleague of mine: P-3 entered into system: 13 Dec 2002 P-3 review complete: 14 Jan 2003 P-3 sent to consulate: 23 Jan 2003 The best thing for the rest of us to do...

AoS is better in your case I am not an attorney, and this advice is based on just my general knowledge about the GC process, so please double check. Your best bet may be to go the AoS route with Company B, while staying in status with an H-1 from Company C. CP is pretty risky if you have...

Thanks for the clarification. I guess some people report the date NVC entered their case into the system as the date the review began. Some others (like yourself) report the date the review was complete... so the dates that people give for "NVC reviews Pkt-3" are quite ambiguous. I guess...

Re: Interview likely in March I am very confused as to how people know that NVC reviewed their case on a particular date. I spoke to an NVC operator, and was told the following sequence: NVC gets the Pkt-3 (from STL in old process, from applicant in new process) NVC enters Pkt-3...

Thanks Krishna Krishna, Thanks for the reply. So, in other words: NVC Receives P3 = date NVC received the mail from us and NVC Reviews P3 = date the DS230 was entered into the system So once the P3 has been entered into the system, the next update the operators can give is the...

How to find out if NVC review has started? Hello All! How do we find out if the packet-3 is waiting for review, or if the review has actually started? Most of the entries on cptracker.com have dates like: NVC Receives P3................12/01/2002 (for example) NVC Reviews...

Hello All! I had a question about the entries on cptracker.com. I find that almost everybody has dates for the following: NVC Receives P3................12/01/2002 (for example) NVC Reviews P3.................12/15/2002 (for example) NVC Sent P3 to Consulate...12/31/2002 (for example)...

Dear Jayanagar, I would sincerely advice you to contact the consulate and tell them how this delay is costing you dearly. Tell them they have taken more time than they initially told you, and that this is causing problems between you and your company. I would advice you to visit the...

To cpdelhi To cpdelhi, Are you sure about the dates you are posting? I saw you post some different dates in a different thread (where you were not sure if you received the fee bill or the Packet-3). If your 140 was received on Oct 30, I find it amazing that your fee bill was issued on Nov...

Some of these topics have been needlessly labelled "Important", which makes them show up at the top of the list, even though some of them have seen no updates since August! Can the moderator of the forum please change these to normal importance so they do not show up at the top? Cheers...

New Process I don't think your lawyer should be sending Packet-3 directly to the consulate. I may be mistaken about this, but it has to go through NVC, certainly after Oct 1. Abhitesh, in response to your question, I guess NVC wants to collect the fee here before even sending a Packet-3, so...

I just spoke to National Visa Center, and they have changed the process of sending out the Packet-3. The operator was very friendly and explained it to me in some detail. Here is what she said: Old process: 1. NVC sends Packet-3 and Fee Receipt to Attorney 2. Cashier's Check and...
