Folks,
Anyone who is looking for more I-824 information, here is what I got from US consulate, New Delhi.
If this is true, which I believe should be the time for the whole process after principal's GC is approved should be less then 3-4 months.
Please post your experiences (people who have applied and gotten through) here. Please try and mention as many dates as possible. This way anyone reading this post can analyze the approximate time it takes for the whole process from start to finish.
Regards,
