Call 1-800-829-1040

Tax Transcripts are got free by calling and requesting at 1-800-829-1040.

Tax Transcripts are printouts that reflect the tax returns you filed for the year.

I got my 2001 Tax transcript in 3 days.
 
Look for ary message

INS provides the computer print-outs for every year you file Tax return. Usually it takes some time to get 2001 year tax return, it seems alrady some people got that. I was also told it will be mailed in 7 to 10 days. Call that number given and go for the transcripts option and \'press 0\' you will be connected to some one, after they verified your name address and SSN, they will complete the request for trascripts.

MumbaiIV email exchange.

Guys,

I sent email twice. They said, In June, interview will be possible. My P3 was mailed from NVC on Apr 9, 2002.

One more thing. I have already all 3 years Tax filing information. Do I need to take that Transcript from related dept. ??

Mumbai consulate replied to my email ..said interview will be in June.

Has anyone started receiving packet 4 yet?

ARY, Prasadk,,,, thanks a million

thanks again...this forum really rocks....
 
travel tickets very costly

It seems June 13- July 13 is a peak season and tickets normally cost $1200-1400 are now costing around $1600-1700. Man it is hard to get tickets confirmed even at that price. Any one from this June list shopping around for tickets? I was doing for the last week most flights are over booked except some junk flights like Gulf air, kuwait air etc.
 
Questions about money, photos etc.

Guys, Since we have already paid $260 with the DS230 I\'m guessing we don\'t have to bother with the demand draft hassel. Are there any other fees that we need to pay in Dollar equivalent?

Also how many photos do we need to take? I read that we need 3 photos for medical checkup also. (Is this specific to Lilavati?)
Are these to be immigration photos or just normal passport size?
 
Prasadk, I checked too..nothing below $1600!

June 13th to July 11th is the "peak period" (just our luck) and the dates before that such as june 1st week is all booked up.

Have you booked already? I\'m going to wait until I hear the exact date of interview since we are going to pay such a high price anyway..don\'t want to pay $275 for changing the date.
 
you will have to pay $65 at the consulate

this is in addition to the $265 we have already paid.
The photos have to be immigration style photos..

Yes, I booked but on wait list trying to get it confirmed for June 11

I am trying for Malaysia air lines, it seems that is the only one to get around $1200 right now, otherwise Emirates also around $1300. Malasysia air lines is taking Newark->Dubai->Kaulalumpur->india(any city). I am hoping that I will get in June Interview. Just plain coincidence and we are paying high price for tickets.
 
New to this group ... Hoping for June Interview ... Have a few questions ?

Hi folks
       I have recently been reading the messages posted on this list. I too am hoping to get an interview date in June in Mumbai.
Does anyone have the list of all documents and photographs (style and in no) and info about PCC ?
I have applied for a PCC over here in San. Fran. consulate ... Do I still need a local PCC ?
Appreciate all your help .
Thanks,
Sunny.
