Thank you folks. I guess the answer to my question is "6 months" and "yes, dependants can travel separately from primary applicant". I did not realize the subtle difference in terminology between "immigrant visa" and "LPR". Thanks for the clarification.

Hi,
What is the maximum allowable time between CP interview and POE? I've heard varying numbers from 2 months to 6 months - any ideas? I also had another question regarding wife and kid travelling after myself (primary application) doing POE first, alone. When I asked this question to the...
Hello folks,
Thanks to all the wonderful responses at immigrationportal.com. Had a very pleasant experience with CP at Chennai on 18th December. Thought I'd share it with you. If anybody has any questions, please feel free to ask away.
The experience was as painless as it could possibly...
Thanks, Ranen. Bummer :-( Would be nice if they recognized some labs/doctors in other cities as well, so we wouldn't have to spend 3 or 4 days in Chennai :-)

Thanks for the detailed response, Lakshman. I already got my interview appointment letter - I will go ahead and mail my baby's details to the consulate right away.

Hi folks,
Is it required to do the blood test and x-ray only in Lister labs or can one do it anywhere else? Like in Bangalore, for example? Same question regarding the doctor examination as well. TIA.

Hi,
My wife and I are scheduled for our CP interview in Chennai on the 18th. We just recently (two months ago) had a baby. Does anybody know the procedure to add our baby to the IV application? I thought that was not required, but when I sent an enquiry to the consulate, I got a terse reply...
Hi,
I got my PCC from the Bangalore police station. It was a relatively painless process. I went to Frazer town police station - they told me I need to apply for it at the police commissioner's office (on Infrantry Road). I went there (you need to go to the foreign services section which is...
Thanks a lot, nkm_oct23 and ranen,
The paystub requirement does indeed sound illogical. However, since it is not specifically stated in the offical doc requirements list as such, I wonder if we can get by without it - I have bank statements, 401K statements, investment statements, tax returns...
Thanks to everybody! Just checked in with the consulate today and got my appointment date - Dec 18th. Looks like they just sent out the P4 stuff today.

Anybody with similar dates? NVC sent my case to Chennai consulate on 25th September, but I still don't have an interview date, nor have I received the P4 forms.

Hi,
I've seen a lot of postings from people on the various documents they carried for the CP interview, but is there an "official" list of required documents anywhere? I've tried the Chennai consulate website, but can't find any. I am wondering, for instance, why the requirement for paystubs...
Hang in there, Newchennai. My checks were cashed on Aug 1st, and my letter from the NVC is dated Sep 25 - so your number should be up in a coupla weeks.
Looks like its the season of NVC responses. Just heard from my attorney that my case has been forwarded to the Chennai consulate by the NVC (sent the P3 forms to STL on 7/25 - that's two full months!) - I guess the interview should be in December?

My P3 was sent to STL on 07/25 and my checks were cashed on 08/01 and I still haven't received any communication regarding my interview. Looks like it's taking a long, long time. Anybody around whose checks were cashed post 08/01 and have received the interview call?
How did you folks verify whether your checks have been cashed or not? My lawyer tells me that we have sent cashier's checks and there is no way of determining if cashier's checks have been cleared?
Hi newchennai,
I still haven't called the NVC. I'm waiting to hear from my lawyer's office on whether or not the check has been cashed. Will keep you updated.
