I need your help

[timesa]

Hi,
I am planing to change from AOS to CP. I did have opted for CP while applying 1-140 and later applied to AOS. Could you please let me know what are stages I need to go through to take CP route. I have got my H1 from Chennai. Do please let me know what are the best options to apply for CP.

Thanks in Advance.

With the extra spin that exists for Chennai Consulate, you could
be in a difficult situation.

The normal process to change from AOS to CP is to file form
I-824.

The question now would be, how much time would they take to
approve your I-824 and send the file back to the CP route.

If it were to be other consulates like Mumbai or New Delhi, candidates are filing the I-824, collecting the receipt and
applying for the AC140.

But my understanding is Chennai is not accepting AC 140 so
this means, you have to wait till the I-824 is approved and the
file goes to Channai in the regular flow.

So, you need to research the aspect of I-824 and see whether
there are any other options.

See whether you would be eligible to go to Mumbai or New Delhi
consulates by virtue of your address in India.
