The plot thickens..My mom decided to reapply for the visa now that her original passport was stolen. She has paid the visa fee at a desginated HDFC bank. A day later, the thief mails her the passport to her residence! What happens to the visa fee now? Can she get a refund? Peculiar honor among...

I sent an email to the American Consulate (Chennai) and they responded immediately saying that she has to get a new visa.

Hi folks, I sure appreciate any insights you can offer. My Mom's Indian passport expires on 5/07. She has her 10 year multiple entry B1/B2 visa stamped on it that is valid till 2/2010. She applied for a new passport and has received it. However, yesterday, her current passport (the one that...

Came back with no issues with Parole Visa Thanks for all your advice. Our plastic cards came to the US address when we were in India..We returned with our Parole Visas with no problems. Just wanted to share this if anybody is going through similar issues.

Made an appointment and went to the ASC to get stamping with the email notice, but their National Database has not been updated with the information of our approval that we received by email on June 3. We are advised to enter the country on AP and ignore the email as the paper notice has not yet...

How about leaving the country with plans to enter in AP and 485 gets approved while you are outside the country. Then what happens when you re enter with AP? Thanks.

Thanks all Thank you all for your valuable suggestions. We were lucky to get the InfoPass appmt for July 5 and gave it a shot to get the stamping without the paper version of the 485 approval. They were willing to do that but BUMMER-in their national database (which the Charlotte ASC follows)...

For the Texas Service Center it changes within 3 weeks..Currently it says May 22 was the last update, prior to that it was May 7 I think. I am not sure about Boston. Hope this helps.

I have received an email saying my 485 is approved on June 3. My finger printing was done 2 months ago. I am planning to travel outside the country on June 7 with Advance Parole. My questions are :: i) Will my AP/H1-B be void if 485 is approved? ii) Do I have to appear for finger printing...

That means currently they are processing those applications received no later than 12/1/05. Good luck
