hooray!
sorry for not updating you all on our interview earlier.
was travelling a lot and didn't have internet access easily available.
me and my wife had our interview in bombay on Dec 18- it was pretty uneventful. we went in at the give time- 9:30am, then just sat and waited until 12pm. we were called at 12pm and gave them all the docs they needed- DS 230 (II), birth and marriage certs, medical reports, company appointment letter etc.
then again sat and waited for 30 minutes. around 1pm, they asked us to go to the other counter for the interview. there was an indian and well as American lady there. they just asked if i was still working with the same company. it was pretty relaxed.
they asked us to come at 3:30pm to collect the passports and pacets. we were 15 minutes late, and the guy was really mad at us, and threated to not give us the packets until the next day etc. he made us wait inside for 40 minutes, before finally giving us the packets and passports- so don't be late for collecting yoru packet/passports!!!
got back to the US yesterday- POE was JFK. again it was uneventful. we just showed the passports and packets to immigration, and they asked us to go to a room next door. we waited for 1 hour (i don't know why it took so long, because there were very few people there). finally they called me and my wife, asked us to sign at 2 places, took our fingerprints and stamped a temporary (1-yr) GC on the passport. be careful, though- the immigration guys were extremely rude, and acting like smart asses...
that's it from my end- let me know if you'd like to know anything else.
