Chennai Feb 20 Successfull!!

Registered Users (C)
First thanks for this great board and the guys who participate.
I would not have known anything about CP without this board.
The experience so far was that of apprehension but the actual thing
took less than 3 minutes. It probably is similar to others, but untill
you see the visa i was somehow not sure. Got the packet at hotel address
at 11.30 today.

Points to remember for future Cpers
1. First check if your current salary is same/more than the LC salary.
   I did not know about it until Jan 30!! I had to run around in the last
   moment to get the future figure in the emp letter.
2. For Company name change/merger/acquisition cases at Chennai it may be safe to assume that you dont need the I-140 amendment before the interview.
But its better to be safe than sorry. In my case, i could not get the
amendment before i left. I just took some press releases, web articles and
emp letter with name change details.
I think all other things like where to stay,DD\'s travellers checks, photos
and the whole shebang are all TRIVIAL.

Question for successfull cpers.
On the sheet on the brown cover, my oocupation is listed "Mathematics/Computer SCientist" and my category is EB2
and my LC title is diffrent. Does this matter at POE?
My first name and middle name are interchanged, guess i can correct it
at POE.

Special thanks to sksquare for that relieving email from Chennai.
 
Successfull Interview on 20th

Had a very nice experience..Interview took about 5 minutes with only one question "Who is your employer"..The Indian officer was extremely friendly and it did not feel like interview at all..

Got packet in mail today..everything ok..I will land in Detroit on March 4th..

Thanks to everybody for help and support..

Good luck to future CP\'ers..
 
GC despo, the first name and middle name can be

changed at PoE and the occupation on the certificate is normal and won\'t cause any issue at PoE. It is normal, I guess for all with software background.
 
Question to GCDespo

In your points to remember for future cpers you said check your current salary, are you referring to the gross income on W-2 form??
what if the gross salary on W-2 form is less that the salary on the LC??
what is future figure in the emp letter. Can somebody clarify??? Thanks.
 
Congrats GC Despo and GC_Mich. Mothkuri, your current sal is....

what you are currently earning, i.e., your paystub. W-2 gives you gross income for previous year at best.
 
I think they match only paystub info or

the contents of letter if current pay is less than specified on LC..W2 is only to verify that you work at the company...
