Rich, If you have got married before your GC approval, just GO FOR IT.. Dont waste any time.
Srini, Answered your questions below...
Prince of Jungle, Lemme try and answer all your questions . I still advise you go through all the other posts on this forum, since there may be
a scenario...
It's Done !!!!
Hey Guys...
My wife had her F2J interview yesterday and it went thro fine... The only hiccup was the Demand Draft. When we received the interview appointment letter the DD amt was calculated using a conversion rate of 46Rs while it was changed recently to 44Rs... And hence the...
Doubts ...
Hi Guys
I have a couple of doubts regarding the documents required for the interview
- Bank statements. All I have is a letter from the Bank which mentions all my accounts and $ amt in each. In the Pkt 3, they say that I should have a statement from a senior bank officer showing...
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.
No specific format for PCC.. Just took the passport and submitted to Local Passport office.. They will do some verification and stamp the passport which will serve as the PCC..
Wife is in Banglore..
Will see if we get the Packet 3 in a week.. since we we filled it a week after u.
Thx
Ganesh
Good Show Srini..
Hmmm... Maybe I shouldnt have listened to Chennai consulate and I should have filed the I-824....
Hopefully I will hear something in the next week or so...
Meanwhile, my wife has already sent her passport for PCC.
Which city is your wife in ?
Ganesh
Thx Mike and Wdcpost
Mike in your case what is the name on your wife's GC.. Her name as in Passport(maiden) or her name and your last name..
Wdcpost .. your wife's GC must be her first name and your last name, i guess..

Spouse Name Change
Mike, Wdcpost,Srini
Before sending Packet 3 or interview, does my wife need to change her name on the passport.
3 options
1- Dont do anything at all
2- Endorse husband's name on passport
3 - Change the name on the passport. For this they issue a new passport and...
Srini,
I guess I should be getting my plastic card in a week ( since online msg says that the card has been ordered).. After that I will send my wife a notorized copy and hopefully that should be sufficient for the consulate to create the Case#
(Note - I did not file for 824)
Mike, thanx...
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...

Hey Srini
Any updates on the documents you sent to chennai consulate.
I finally was able to reach someone on the phone, they said they have the documents and they will create the CASE# after verifying that my GC has got approved. They said this may take 2-3 months.....
Ganesh
Address ??
I am ready to send all the documents to the Chennai consulate. Can anyone who as sent the docs tell me what address it has to be sent to.
Also, is there a way to know if it has reached them.
Thx
Ganesh
