Confirmed MAY for CHENNAI.....

address for plastic card

aneel,

from what i have heard earlier, its the address mentioned in your DS 230 form. thats where they send you plastic card, you cannot change it @ port of entry. So you may want to be careful. I have put a friend's address who owns a house . I guess you can do something similar.

Thanks,

address in India.

The following is the validated information about the lab and
one of the doctors:

Lister Labs:

Channai STD code: 44.

do not do tests.

Talk to the person about coming in the evening. I believe they

West Coast ..

Congratulations for your May Interview.Hope it goes through easily..
Those in the west coast,
Are you flying through Pacific route(Via Singapore/Malaysia) to India? What are the rates?
I m planning the Pacific route for my june interview. But SARS fears delays my plan..

Thanks
 
hellogc ,

I live on west coast and the logical route would have been
via pacific. Because of SARS I re-routed myself to go through
Europe.

While it is individual's decision, it is true that the risk exists in
the pacific route.

Why not try for an alternative?

POE

Raju,
i m planning that too.
But where wll be your POE?
lets say , you start from SFO to Amsterdam ... to chennai.

When you come back, does the POE will be something other than
SFO,though destination is SFO?I never tried this route..

Will it delay getting the Plastic Card?

Had seen posts that POE at SFO is good and fast in getting plastic cards..

any thoughts..

Thanks

Received P 4 at Indian address

Received the packet on Tuesday.
City: Hyderabad

Raju


hellogc,

My POE is again San Francisco.

When you come back the FIRST US Airport that you land in will
be your POE.

So, if you are flying Northwest from Amsterdam, and if it lands
in Dallas,TX before flying to SFO then you will have to finish
all your immigration, customs formalities at Dallas.

Birth Certificate.. (initial expansion)

Hi,

I have Birth certificates where my name is in full (properly expanded): But the name of my father and mother are having initials:
K. V. Venkateswaran , V. Vijayalakshmi

Will this be an issue ?

Is it good enough if I take an affidavit from my parents in stamp paper also along which will have expanded initials for them ?

Please pitch in..

Which thread to post for this (some experienced people with this situation ?..)

Thanks a lot

- Sriram.
 
questions during interview

Hi all,
I am a junior member to this forum and most of you might know more about the interview process.

I have some (silly??)doubts/questions regarding the same.

During the interview, will they ask any job related questions or will they check only our documents?

For e.g., I read/hear some where that: some times(very rarely) they may ask some questions like how a mechanical engineer( if he is from mechanical background) is doing a software job..some thing like that.
Of course we can justify all such questions. But I just want to know from you, if it is true or not. Please share with us if you know any such experiences/questions to be asked by consulate people.

PS: I am expecting the interview in June, You guys might have done more research about the interview. That is why I am putting this question in this forum.

Thanks in advance for giving any such specific information you have regarding the interview process.

I read some experiences posted by some people during the interview.So, I have a fair idea about the process.

I hope all of you people will share your experiences as soon as you can once your interview is over.

Regds,
Sam.
 
Questions during interview..

kumar_sam,

No question is silly for the forum. There could be several others
who have the same doubt but hesitant to ask!

A broad response would be:

It depends on the person asking the questions. The chances are
low for a technical cross-examination.

The following is my personal experience:

5 years ago, when I went to Chennai consulate for my H1B
a candidate at the next window was explaining some technical
tasks he does for his company.

They may ask some generic questions like ' What is your role in the organization? ' , ' As so-and-so what are your responsibilities ??'.

I can understand a fresh H1B candidate having difficulty with this
kind of questions but not IV candidates.

However try to answer the question in brief and in lay man terms.

Remember as part of I-140 petition filing, we need to explain the
job responsibilities in non-technical terms. So, they may have that
information in front of them.
