Myself and my wife had our Interview at Houston, TX yesterday. They didnt stamp our passports as they are waiting on a FBI clearance for me. My wifes cleared though. I was just wondering if anyone has an idea if how long it would take for the FBI name check to come through??

later.
 
documents?

Can you provide what document you need for an interview? What do they ask in interviews? I will be going for interview in the near future ( I hope) and any info is appreciated.

Please do post your experiences at the time of interview. Was the officer friendly and whole-nine-yards. Also, if you were not involved with any criminal charges, yet, do they insist on a name-clearance from FBI? Don't they allow finger-print clearance alone?
 
FBI clearance

neha123: what was the online message for you and your wife after you did the FP? Did it say "Pending Review" for you?

Just curious! Please let me know. Thanks.
 
ALL

I dunno why the case was transferred to Houston office. I changed my address from Virginia to Texas 2002 May and the case got transferred May 2003. I dunno if the address change caused this transfer or the medicals.

Whatever I took every damn document including I could find. All my credentials, labor approval, 140 approval, IRS tax statement (remember... its not the tax returns we file every year) I-134, bank statement.. and most importantly employment letter and the last 6 paystubs.

The interview was pretty much simple. She asked just for my employment letter and some of my paystubs. Thats about it.. Mannnn I wasted whole 10 days gathering all the documents for the interview. The interview lasted for atmost 20 mins for myself and my wife together.

My wifes FBI Name Check was cleared and mine was not. The officer told us that there is nothing much she could do. She told us that she will send us an approval letter after I get a clearance from the FBI names Check. I was wondering how long this would take. Please update me if any one has some news.


later.
 
neha123,

Just wondering, did the Houston office schedule the interview ar did you have to call and schedule yourself ?

My case has been transferred to the Dallas office after being pending from Nov, 2001. No idea why. I did move within the metroplex late last year.

Any pointers are appreciated.
 
neha123,

I hope you will get your approval soon.

Could you please tell us what is "IRS tax statement" and how to get it ?

Thanks in advance,

Actually when any official take fingerprint , they pass that information to FBI server, Where FBI stores all wanted and unwanted ppl fingerprint, they try to match the subject fingerprint with the unwanted one, if they found you are gone otherwise everything is ok. So some time it take 15 to 20 min and some times it takes 4 - 5 hrs. Depending upon the load on fbi server. If you have waited over there, that day, for another 4 - 5 hrs you could have get your passport stamped. Anyway don't worry. Congrats any way.................
