CP Issue at Mumbai Consulate - Name Check Clearance Pending

Name Check

Guys.
Lets say name check is taking longer the 2 weeks and I do not have many vacation days left!! Do you recomend to come back to
US and go again when evrything is cleared?

I still have valid H1.

Please help.
 
parekhalpa:

Name check normally takes about 2-4 weeks. And ther eis no way you will be able to enter usa with a FBI check going on. So sit tight!! Explain to your employer that you are in themiddel of this admin check and to provide advance leave of absence wih pay or unpaid leave since this is an exception and there is not much one can do about it! BUT DEFINITELY DONT EVEN THINK OF FLYING TO USA with a pending immigrant visa and FBI check going on!!!
 
Name Check - some questions

Some questions on the Name Check process

1. Is it a good idea to have the Name Check clearance from FBI done before one goes to the consulate for the CP interview? Or is this something only the Consulate will do it?

2. Is the "name check" the same as obtaining the "FBI Identification Record under the guidelines of the United States Department of Justice order (DO)556-73" See attached file. I downloaded from a thread on this forum.

3. What is the process for getting this done? (where should the application be made, format of application / letter, costs, time taken)

4. Should this be done for spouse and dependent children as well

All help on this issue appreciated.

Answer: If you want you can do it by following the link above. But either ways if the consulate wants they will do a seperate fbi check anyways!

Answer: Happens for everyone going thru the cp process. Again even if you do FBI check and if the consulate feels the need they will do a seperate check so it would not make much sense for you to do the fbi check unles for personal satisfaction.
