Re: question : for saradao

dpk123,
It is as simple as calling consulate. Usually (In most of the cases) it takes week to 10 days time to reach consulate from date NVC forwards P3. It looks like most of the cases are being forwarded electronically and consualte will repond you saying file has reached once they receive physical file. My personal experience was otherwise. When I called consulate after 3 days from the date NVC forwarded my case to consulate, it was already entered and nothing is mentioned about physical trasnfer!!!

Update

Hi all,

Just an update to keep the thread going that Chennai web site gets "MSSQL server error" when checking for appointment dates.

Thanks

Hi,

Does any of you start from SFO? Significant difference in ticket rates on different airlines.....
 
Guys,

I am not going for any postponement of my interview date. I will stick with whatever they assign me.

I should be having my interview in November. I got a reply from chennai, saying that "Pls check back for the interview date after October 15th".

Chennai Recieved case from NVC : 09/04

Is there any way I can schedule interview after 20th?

Hi,
I won't be able to travel before 20th(November/December).
Is there any way I can ask consulate chennai to schedule my date after 20th?

Thanks
 
Re-Schedule ??

GreenChennai,

U can ask for the postponement but i don't think u can specify the date(s) within that month.

Check with chennai consulate.

Consulate wait for monthly Visa Bulletin

The consulate has to officially wait for the Visa Bulletin which comes out before mid of any month. Only then do they know the Visa Numbers and the Current status in various categories. Right now all Employment based are current but still that needs to be verfied for Nov as well (since the bulletin gives visa numbers for the coming month). So I guess there is no use calling them before 15th. But there is no harm in trying though.

We could even keep looking a Mumbai announcement also to make that call. But Mumbai does not put the coming months interview date and NWD site still has Sep interviews. So we can keep a watch in this forum for NWD and Mumbai confirmed cases.

Re: Consulate wait for monthly Visa Bulletin

Hi kd6809,

I have seen a posting for NWD, with confirmed november interview. Not that it matters but, I was under the impression that Visa numbers as assigned when NVC reviews the cases.

What ever might be the case, we have to wait atleast a week more to find out more.

So if the visa dates are announced before 15th you can expect them to put the dates before that on the web. So I guess there no use calling them since they are not going to tell us anyway.
