Hi OCICHICAGO, Could you tell me where you live? They got mine on the 7th of March. I still have not received it back. I had marked the envelope 'For OCI Scheme' and not 'For OCI Document' ( they probably changed the instructions later)...I am wondering if they've even opened the...

Congratulations, OCI!! They got mine on the 6th...so lets see if I get this today or sometime next week.

Hello Ocichicago, We've sent our passports - I think they would have received it on the 7th or 8th of March. I'm guessing we should get it back next week or the week after. Keeping my fingers corssed everything is OK. Will keep you posted. thanks

It's come!!! Hey OCI, Let me be the first to tell you! Check out the Chicago consulate site ...new numbers have been put up and I can see mine and my husbands - you should see yours also!! ALL THE BEST! Whew :)

Hi OCICHICAGO, Just wanted to let you know ...I emailed the Chicago consulate asking for a status. Of course, did not hear from them ...will keep you posted.

Yes I did - had my oath in december. Please check this link for all oath dates http://www.mnd.uscourts.gov/ ...follow link to general information and then naturalization ceremonies 2006. If you got a 'Congratulations you've been approved checked' after your interview , try to write to them...

Hi OCICHICAGO, I have not heard anything ...after my phone conversation I am now hesitant to do anything more. I will wait till March 14 and them email them to find out my status. I am keeping my fingers crossed that I hear something before that. I will certainly keep you posted if I hear...

Try to have just one application - read all the posts on this site where people have two A numbers and the hassels they are facing at cittizenship time.

After my phone conversation with some guy in the Chicago consulate, I am now hesitant to call up the chicago consulate and actually give my numbers - what if out of spite they hold up the application and delay it even more ...I'm getting all paranoid. I would like to call up Kanniyal (sp?) -...

Wow - Looks like we were in the same batch that may ( or may not) have gone to India. Last Friday, I called them to check on myappliction. Here is what happened; ======================================== Me : I'm calling to find out the status of my OCI application. CG :When did you file...

OH yes! My application reached chicago on the 11 of Jan 2006. They left a message for us on our answering m/c saying we had not indicated the date of Naturalization. On the 12th, we faxed, phoned and emailed them the date.On the 19th of Jan we recieved out receipt. So obviously I checked the...

Thank you and Congratulations! Finally you're out of the loop. Now that makes me a little concerned about my applicatio. Oh well...

Hi, Could you please tell me if you're a PIO holder? I applied to Chicago on Jan 13, 2006, the MHA website says the application was 'granted' on Jan 14, 2006. But the Chicago consulate website states numbers ( for OCI stickers received) for those who applied in 2006 that were 'granted'...

In my opinion the immigration guide is good enough to follow, but of course if you have time and like reading, no harm in borrowing a book from the library and taking a quick gander. The only gotcha is ofcourse knowing that a traffic ticket also means a citation. We did not know that and we...

Yes, I do think that applying for a GC will cause a problem if you want to apply for a non-immigrant visa later on. A visitor visa is a non-immigrant visa ...and you will have to own up in the application that you've applied for immigration thru a gc - and of course the consulate office will not...

I don't think suit and tie is required. My husband just wore a tie and that too only because he had to go to work after. I saw a LOT of people in their traditional garb ( Somalian ladies)...I think what they probably mean by proper attire is no shorts, torn jeans etc ... I think you'll need...

In MSP / St. Paul My husband and I applied in June and had a priority date of June 2nd. We both had our interview on Oct 27. My husband's oath letter was mailed the same day to appear for the Oath ceremony on Nov 9th. So that makes it 5 months for him. I have not yet received my oath...

Many thanks!! I read up your posts and they were quite helpful

Interview done We had out interview today - St. Paul DO. We were a little tense as we had not disclosed our traffic tickets ( did not know we had to). We had paid the fine etc but had no proof ... Well, the interviews went fine. My husband was asked if he was cited. He said yes, but did...

Unfortunately, this 29.99 option does not service CA! I also realised that I filled in the wrong form for getting the records from DMV . I have to fill in the new form and send it on Monday and my interview is in the last week of OCT. A long shot that I'll get it before then. Oh well...just...
