Could someone tell me what vaccinations are administered at the medical checkup before CP? Thanks,

True purpose!! I think everyone's forgetting the true purpose of the ACT passed by congress. This law signed by President Clinton was a very hard fought "victory" by a volunteer organization called Immigration Support Network (ISN) whose members, mostly H1-B workers, donated money and time...

New SSN card quite essential Hi, If you have a card currently that has a restriction on it, such as: - Not valid for work without INS authorization - Not valid for work etc., then, when you apply for another job, and show your SSN card to the personell department, they will refuse to...

Not a problem Hi, You shouldn't have to worry about the attorney's signature as a preparer, because this section only matters if you could not prepare the document your self. This section is for people who cannot write in English and therefore have to have a signature from the person who...

It's 7/19 and u still haven't recd. pkt 4? You had better go and get the packet or follow up some how, otherwise you won't be able to get all your documents together on time. It might be better to call/email the consulate and have them postpone your interview. If you go to the interview without...

One travel agent told me to avoid going via France. Our H1-B visa stamps on the passports have expired and so has our I-94\'s, and even if they weren\'t, they would be "confiscated" in any case on departure. I got Delta tickets via Milan, Italy from Boston and am not getting...

Consular Processing means applications processed at a Consular Post So, actually CP is for people who are not resident in the US. For people in the US you have Adjustment of Status (AOS), but we go for CP to circumvent the AOS delays. You should be able to continue your CP application where...

bluegrass Hi, Thanks for your reply to my earlier query. Another ? for you :). I was wondering if it is possible to get medical here in the US before you leave. Did you enquire about this at all? Also, when did you set up your appt. at Bombay for medical (I think if I\'m not mistaken you...
