Hi, I\'ve recently completed my CP from Islamabad and reentered US. Thanks to all \'good smartans\' who helped me on the way with their suggestions and experiences, esp. Arif & Shahid. Let me know if I can be of any help to anyone.

GZ,

It is such a relief to hear from you. I have been posting messages regarding CP in Islamabad and had concluded that I may be the only person doing CP in Islamabad.

Would you please tell me of your experience and suggestions with regard to documents and other things that I need to keep in mind. We can either communicate through this message board or you can reach me at eulhaq@yahoo.com.

Thanks for your reply.

CA123,
I don\'t know what stage you are at right now? Approved I-140, Packet3 or 3.5?? If you have specific questions, please contact me at mghazal@hotmail.com
My experience with Islamabad Consulate has been pretty smooth. They actually asked me through my email when I would like to come for the interview!! Interview was a breeze, it took only 3 minutes. Actual challange is to get to the interview. I would suggest, if possible, ask someone in Pakistan to correspond with Consulate on your behalf, like send or recieve Packets 3/3.5 etc through Gerry\'s FedEx. Its more efficient.
Don\'t worry, if your case is clean and you have all the documents then its easier and lot faster than AOS. There are so many other guys/gals who have done it recently. Check other postings in \'Consular Processing\' forum for more info.

Hi,

I have send my packet 3 from US through regular Fedex. It is 2 weeks now. I am thinking about sending a downloaded version of packet 3.5 instead of waiting for packet 3.5 from consulate because I heard that it comes pretty slow. Could somebody tells me what to include in packet 3.5 and how to send it. Either by regular fedex or gerry\'s fedex.

Thanks.

Hi,

I just got my h1-b approved from US/CA employer and i\'m about to go to Gery\'s drop box to drop my package. Could you please guide me as to how long will it take them to process my package and if there is an interview, what do they usually ask in interview as well as what documents do they require us to bring for an interview?

thanks

From the time one receives packet 3.5, can someone share his/her experience afterwards in completing documents to a successful interview. Also, after successful interview is their a deadline (in months) one has to arrive at Port of Entry ?

Thanks
