Hi,
My case was forwarded to Chennai consulate beginning of Feb. I have sent in my passport to Indian consulate for PCC. I called the Indian consulate today for status and the Indian consulate said it will take upto two months for me to receive passport back.
Just in case US consulate issues a interview date thats earlier than when I receive my passport back, can I request the consulate for a date change.

Thanks in advance for any guidance,
Milind
 
did send your request to the indian consulate or the embassy in DC. I spoke to an officer and she said that PCC processing would take 2 weeks if your passport has been issued in the US and 4 weeks if it was issued in india.

you may want to contact the indian embassy in DC.

Hi nishokie,
Thanks for your response.

2 months is the upward limit. 4 weeks is expected time. My concern is that if my PCC takes longer than 4 weeks, then is it possible to postpone GC interview.

Hi milind,

Any way your pd is not current.It will some time to become current... So there is no need for panic
 
After waiting for 45 days new york indian embassy issued me a PCC even though they had got no response from India.
 
Hello ,
I also want to extend my interview date and have sent a letter to the consulate via attorney. Lets hope they respond fast and extend the date.
 
harru,

you can call the consulate directly and re-schedule the appointment date. from my experience so far, they are very helpful.

good luck

Dear Sir or Madam:

We do not have any provision to change the interview dates already
scheduled. If you are unable to appear for the interview on your scheduled
date, please inform the Embassy well in advance if possible, so that we can
reschedule you for an interview based on the next available dates.

Sincerely,

Subject: Request For Cancellation of Scheduled Interview

Dear Sir,

My Immigrant Visa details are as follows:

Case Number: XXX
Name (P) : XXX
Preference Category: E2 - IND

I have received a letter on 11th April from you stating that I have
notified that all my documents are ready (for the Immigrant Visa
interview) and the interview has hence been scheduled for 19th April
2005.

I think there has been a communication error somewhere as I do not
believe that I ever communicated that my documents were ready and
also since, now that I have less than 4 days to compile the documents
(some of which like Police Clearance Certificates are not in my
control) , I would not be able to attend the interview on the 19th
April 2005. Hence, I request to cancel the interview on the 19th
April 2005.

I would further like to suggest that you may please not schedule me
for any next date and whenvever I am ready , I would intimate you my
readiness for the interview and I may then be assigned an interview
date.

Thanks and Regards
