Rajeev,
I too read a lot about chennai consulate refusal on AC-140 petions.My lawyer asked chennai consulate before preparing AC-140.And they responded may,if my circumstances and document s meet their criteria.Right now,I'm working in india for the same company,got H1b visa,for same job in the same company,got LCA (RIR) and I-140 approved AOS,also resident of chennai consular district. So I have no go otherthan I-824 approved or AC-140 routes.Morever, I-824 at CSC is taking morethan a year to get approved.Are these not sufficient to prove the hardship?
I have found a person,not a member of this forum,who recently got his GC through AC-140.His lawyer was able to convince the chennai consular officer on his case.Anyways,did anybody tried sending docs to this consulate?On what grounds did they refuse?Do you have their contacts?Please forward them to me.
Thanks
