guys,


just finished my interview and came to my hosts' place. My appt was at 8 and i was out of the consulate a little after 10. There was no problem. I will post my detailed experience after I reach my hometown. I have a couple of qns and would appreciate a response:


1) At the the docs collection that happened first, I was asked for only one photograph that was stapled to my ds230. I was not asked for any more photographs. Even the photograph I gave and was stapled had nothing written on the back (I pointed that to the lady and she was ok with it)

2) Also, I signed a sworn statement while my docs were being collected. There was no one asking us to raise our right hands and take oath or anything. Is that ok.


I was told i will be getting my visa and docs in 2-3 working days. Dont know if blue dart delivers over the weekends.

Would someone please respond. I was congratulated and said "welcome to the us" and all those nice things but the above two are nagging my mind a little.

Thanks to everyone of you for your support, esp - raju,kd,alren,vj. Sorry if I missed writing someone's name. I sure appreciate your help.

Thanks,
Dilbert

Dude chill down. Throught this you have been worried about the unnecessay small trivial items.

Say if you did not raise your hand ,what they are going to do? Call you back to raise it? Somebody has a picture to prove that you did not raise your hand and at POE it will be exposed? So without the hand raised, there's no value of the "signed sworned" documents?

Go with what r_sada said ...

Lastly, congrats.
 
Congrats Dilbert... relax and enjoy your GC and days off.
Looking forward to hear about your detailed experience.

ok, guys. I recd the pkt this morn. Everything is in order. its an mrv visa. my h-1 visa stamp on pp is not canceled, perhaps because its expired(?). There are a couple of #s printed on the visa. One is called registration# and the other is printed in red just below the 6 month end date. Which of these is the alien #?

I will post a detailed experience soon. Thank you guys, once again

Dilbert :) - atlast!!!!
 
I dont see a number beginning with "A" on the visa. Is the alien # something that I will get at POE?


Thx,
Dilbert
 
dilbert:

WIth my fading memory, I would like to say that based on the CP approval reference number you will be issued when you enter USA. A# is followed by 9 digits such as A# xxx-xxx-xxxx.

I have a red-stamp in my passport with the A# which is also on the physical GC which leads me to believe based on your cp approval reference number you will receive a A# at POE.
 
A# = 0 + 8-digit #

dilbert:

It seems your MRV visa is just like mine. There is no number starting with "A".
The Second number, below the Case_Number (I don't remember exactly but I think it is registration number) which is 8-digits long serves as the A#. The officer at POE suggested me to use that as Alien number until the plastic card arrives.

At the Social Security office, I asked them to add an "0" before to 8-digit number to pull my records, and they were able to retrive my data as "Legal Permanent resident ......".

I hope this help you.
 
List of Documents -
