    usnnycus, Just to clarify, I meant the consulate said that you do NOT even require to file I-824. So if 824 is not filed, there is no question of receipt. But again, we will know for sure only if I get the packet 3 in the next week or so.

    usnnycus, I have spoken and exchanged emails with Chennai consulate a whole bunch of times and they are consistent in their stand => " YOU DO NOT NEED TO FILE I-824" for f2j process. If I get my packet3 in the next week or so, then I really do not think 824 needs to be filed.

    Yalla I have consulted a couple of lawyers and they all agree that even if u r on EAD card, as long as u have an approved H1 petition you can bring your wife to the US on a H4. U DO NOT have to have the H1 stamped on your passport. Once your wife comes to the US, she can file for the...
