Consular Processing (New Delhi)

Interview dates

arreosamba,

The interview dates are finalized by the Consular officers and not the individuals replying to the e-mails or answering phone calls. Though these guys have a fair idea based on statistics. But the reply are generally fair estimates and should not be taken as guaranteed answers.

Once the dates are finalized these support people will give you actual interview dates. An interview in June may be less likely, interview in July most likely and interview in August for sure, if it doesn't happen before.

Thanks & Good Luck.
 
arreosamba ,

Based on statistics you are likely to have your interview in June.
Don't give too much weight to the email you received since the
info. is not specific.

Give them few more days to be able to give you some good information.

1. What numbers do you use to call NWD and what time is best to call?
I tried ...8062/8374 , both keep ringing and nobody answers.
2. Best wishes to all May CPers - Raju et al.
 
Persistence is the key

arreosamba,

The numbers you have are correct. Best time to call is at about 8:45AM (Indian time). The office just open at that time and people are fresh to take calls. You have to keep on trying again and again. Sometimes it make take 45 minutes before someboady picks your call, other times you might get lucky in the first call too.

Thanks & Good Luck.

Lone ranger..

I had written earlier:

<<<<My case sent to NWD Apr 10, Recd by NWD (Likely Apr 17), got email from NWD last week of April saying iv most likely in second half of June.
On further inquiry, I got a email from NWD today saying "dates not finalised yet, your interview may be in July or August" !!>>>

Rajeev Kumar/cpdelhi/raju y'all were right on the mark that the emails are sent by support staff with no specific info.
I checked the dates on the web site, my IV is on June 25
I think I am the only one for June at NWD(on this forum)
cheers

Congarts..... Since there are only few CPers for US Embassy, New Delhi there is usually only one/two acctive person posting/using this forum. There are few others who just use this forum to browse and not take an active part in the discussions.

Good Luck to you.
 
Notarized from Consular office

rajDelhi,

I-134 notarization will be done by the consular officer in the embassy. I don't think Indian gazzetted officers/courts notarization is accptable by US EMbassy authorities for I-134 notarization. This is what I read some where.

Please call the US Embassy in New Delhi for clearer instructions.

For safey, take two originals of all the I-134 forms. One one set of originals get the notarization from the INdian court (only, as it will have higher vakue than ordinary gazzetted officer notarizationin my view) and the other original set (not notarized)to the interview. The consular officer can decide what to do with the other.

In this way you have covered your self better.

Thanks.

Packet 3 question

Hi Guys,

Simple question:

In packet 3, I have sent the bar code page and DS230 part 1, which I had downloaded from internet (the form was exactly the same I received from NVC).

Its a employment based GC and I am not have any share in the company.

Thus only the barcode page and DS230 part 1 are the only documents I am supposed to send to NVC.

Please correct if I am wrong.

Thanks
 
thanks CP Delhi

Today i called the embassy regarding notarization of I-134 form they told me bring the original and you have to sign in front of me and they will notarized. As it is US govt document so we won't accept indian court notarization.

Thnaks
Raj
