cpDelhi, 1. In my form the lawyer had put the same name for mine and my wife's mother. I corrected this when we submitted the form at the interview. Nobody even asked us about the change. 2. My position too had changed from the time of filing, meaning it was different from the one sent to NVC...

Correction.. The dates for the friend are 11/14 and 11/26. Sorry for the typo. Thanks.

Hi, We entered Chicago on 2/7 and received cards on 2/27. Another friend of mine entered Chicago on 2/14 and got the cards on 2/26. It may be dependent on the local INS/BCIS office. Thnaks.

cpDelhi, Packet 4 was sent via regular mail. They mail it out via diplomatic mail and USPS takes it over here. It took about 3 weeks to reach. They mailed it out on 12/17 and I got it around 1/8. Thanks.

Re: On what date was the interview confirmed cpDelhi, Sorry for the late reply. Initially I talked to the guy around 11/22 when he assured me to take the case up with the consular officer, and later sent an email to confirm that the consular officer had consented to give us a date in...

Re: Thanks cpDelhi, That's exactly what happened to me, it would keep on ringing sometimes. You disconnect and call again, it is engaged. I just kept on trying on days when it was important to speak to somebody. I was given my date via email. My wife was entering her last trimester in...

Hi, Our DOE was 2/7/03. We got the welcome letters on 2/27 and the cards on 3/3/03. Thanks.

cpDelhi, The first two #s are the only ones for IV. I was able to connect a couple of times but was very difficult, had to try for an hour atleast. The good thing is that they respond to email pretty quick (ivnd@state.gov). I was told that callers from US can call anytime except during...

Hi, We entered Chicago on 2/7 and are yet to receive the welcome letter or the cards.

cpdelhi, 1. I did carry a copy of the cheque paid to NVC. 2. Verbal confirmation was enough, this was asked at the first window. 3. Both the case #s are same. Thanks.

You don't need this at all if you carry W-2s and Tax returns, which everybody has. If you appearing for the interview before filing return for last year, carry last paycheck from each employer which will display YTD totals. Don't bother for this. In my interview they didn't ask for any...
