*** After 140 approval & Before case sent to consulate

I heard

I heard payslips, employment letter, w-2's are must. And it's always better to carry what they have asked for in p-4 and in the same order so that you can avoid suprises.
along with the above.. BC's, marriage certificate, marriage photos, avvidavit of support for dependents(i-134), I-140 approval notices, recipt of LC petition, copy's of i-140 & LC petitions, current & previous H1-b's, copy of current LCA(basis for current H1)
& copy of p-3 and P-4 + appointment letter
medical records, 3 immi styale photos, 3 passport size photos
& finally your passports.

Thanks,
 
Yes it's true

Yes getmycp is right in a way. If you are currently employed on a H1-B visa with the same employer who has filed your green card, some times the consulate would like to verify the fact that you are/were working for the company.

But one of my friend who's gc was filed by a company different from the one he was working and he did CP. The consulate had requested for payslips and just mentioned that he is *GOING TO* work for the company and currently employed with a different company. They counsualte people mentioned that 'technically' they don't need a payslip as a 'required' supportive document. But they just ask for them as a added safety measure.

But, again like getmycp, I too *STRESS* that you *SHOULD* carry your payslips and all pertinent documents whenever possible. My point is that don't be too much worried about missing payslips etc. You could always say you are taking upaid time off from work due to personal reasons (like rewarding oneself with a good long vacation before the GC ;) ).

Again, I am *NOT* saying that you don't need payslips. Hope I am clear.

Cannon,

As far as I know, all you need to do is to take your chennai passport office and there is a form to be filled up to issue PCC. It's a one day affair. Give it in the morning and you'll get it in the evening (provided your passport was issued in MADRAS). For chennai consulate this should do.

But there were few cases where the consualte had requested to get another police certificate from the Police station Juristriction of the place where you live in chennai. That you could get any offical ranked Inspector or Higher. (just a letter stating that you don't have any criminal case against you).

Hope this helps.

:)

I asked that question about PCC because in the FAQ section in the consulate web site, it says that you need PCC from 'District Police Station'. I wasn't sure if they will accept PCC from 'Local Police Station'. Anybody used pcc from local police station, before?
Thanks
 
Alternate to cptracker.com

We are missing lots of updates from cp'er friends. Till cptracker is down should we create a special thread just to post the individual happenings/progresses with NVC so that everyone is in same page.

Just a thought.

Thanks

I believe attempts are being made to revive it. We can, may be
wait one or two days, and then start a new thread for all those
case where the Packet 3 has reached NVC.

Check this out ...

http://groups.msn.com/ConsularProcessTracker/general.msnw?action=get_message&mview=1&ID_Message=2

I've created a group under MSN to discuss our issues around Consular Processing ... Jump on and start using it ....

Since it is under MSN, to login you would require to have a hotmail account and key in its password. I hope every one has one if not go ahead and create one up.

I find it to be very reliable, its always up and fairly scalable.

Few Questions..

Q1. Is there an update in the NVC system when P3 is sent to consulate by NVC?
Q2. How does NVC send packet to US Consulate? Is it FedEx/UPS/DHL?
Q3. Is there any way to track the Packet 3 sent by NVC Portsmouth to US Consulate in India?

Thanks.
 
2) I read somewhere they use courier service DHL.

3) You can not track your packet because several cases are
sent together.

Review complete!!

Fresh news. 1 minute old.

The NVC has completed the review of my packet 3.
The operator said they would need 2 to 4 weeks for
the file to be sent to the consulate.

Some details for the benefit of the members:

Packet 3 sent to NVC : 17th Jan 2003.
Received at NVC : 21st Jan 2003
Entered in the system: 31st Jan 2003
Review completed : 13th Feb 2003
Review period : 13 days.

Applicants: Myself + spouse + 1 child.

There is a certain shift in the time line now. I sensed this long back, because somekind of background checks were included in the I-140 stage.

So, the review period should drastically fall down. Good luck to other members waiting.

Raju
 
Very Good News

Raju,

Congrats for getting your P3 review complete. Very Good News. I hope other individuals who are backloged at present also get their P3 review complete very soon.

cpTracker.com should be up and running from MOnday, Feb 17,'03. Atleast that's what the old and new owner of cpTracker.com posted on the thread "Bring life to cpTracker.com" mentioned on the thread listed below.

Thanks.
