Hi all,
I just wanted to find out if any of you are waiting for fingerprint, namechecks? I have stayed in US (F1 and then H1) for 5 years..and
when I went to the chennai consulate on dec 14 for H1 extension,
they kept my passport, fees and papers for some additional admin processing. also, I had to pay 85$ for fingerprint.. I am just waiting
on that so far and it is already 5 weeks.. luckily my company is
taking it coolly.. so far..
Here is the object of this post.
1. Is this check becoming common (read in this forum that they have added lot of names to the CLASS database) ?
2. How many are waiting for similar checks to complete.? atleast we can get an idea as to what is the typical timeframe in the case of person sent for
a namecheck with no criminal history ( I am getting some answers like, it can take an year, 6 months.. but they seem to be unique cases..)
3. Any way to find the actual status of the namecheck (sent a mail to the fbi name check center.. no response so far) and possibly expedite this process?
Thanks for the response and Regards
Anis
