I am starting a thread for people who are expecting CP interview in chennai in April.

I don't have access to my case number because of company policies. And the company's attorney will not call or e-mail the consulate unless they have delayed beyond the expected timeline. We just have to wait until they post the dates online: http://madras.sphynx.com/wwwhappointment.php3

Just wondering if anyone has called and found out yet?

thanks

Guess what you can call the consulate, provide your first name and last name and they will give you the case number with information if they have received your P3. You can try the same with NVC.

I feel confident this will work with consulate but not sure with NVC. But worth trying!@
 
Case #

I obtained my case number by calling the NVC and providing essentially what KD has mentioned + Birth date etc..
 
Called the consulate tonight packet 3 has been recieved but she said the interview is expected in may or june.

Date NVC sent to chennai: Jan 30th...

isn't that a little too late...i know someone who had their case sent jan 22 who has an interview march 16th...

does it take longer for EB2? since I have seen only a handful being processed every month...does it move slower?

Just concerned... anyone else in the same boat????

In addition to the previous posting...

I called NVC and it says NVC has forwarded the case on
Jan 23 2004...

and chennai consulate told me they recieved it on Jan 30...

thanks

Based on the fact that chennai has received your p3 on 1/30/04, I would like to say that you could be scheduled for april interview (which should be finalized later this week) or latest for the may interview especially knowing the supersonic speeds with which chennai has been processing twice as much cases than other 2 indian consulates!
 
KD1403,

But when I called them last night...the lady told me that it will be in may or june and asked me to call end of march to find out. I was really hoping the interview would be in April and I was very disappointed hearing that. Well the whole greencard process has been a drag and I stopped hoping...but after I started taking part in this forum my hopes went high...

I just have to cross my fingers and wait...

I know I have already asked this question once before...regarding PCC...both mine and my husband's expire on May 3. I can get mine in a day because my passport was issued in this country. But my husband's took about 3 weeks last time we applied. Considering the response that the lady at the consulate gave me should I reapply or wait until March 15th to definitely make sure if we are in the April's interview list? I read in another thread that for second PCC the process can be expedited...how valid is that information?

Thanks a bunch

I would try to contact the consulate by 3/15, if they confirm you are not in the April list then on 3/15 itself both you and your husband can apply for it together and a week later call the consulate and explain the situation. I know my first pcc took about 6 weeks but the 2nd one took about 2-2.5 weeks. Again i dont think this is a rule but an exception. It is just a matter of convincing the person @ Indian consulate.
 
When is the best time to call the chennai consulate to talk to a live person to check whether they recieved my case. thanks
 
Interview Date

All,
My case was forwarded/or reached Chennai on Jan. 23rd. I called them yesterday and they said that I will not have interview in April and I might have it in May or June. I am in EB-2 category. For a case that was forwarded on Jan. 15th, they got the interview date of Mar. 18th...... It looks like there are lot of EB2 cases......

Thanks

hoping april interview

My P3 went to the consulate on Feb 13th, EB3 category and when i called the consulate, i was informed by a lady that I can expect a April interview surely. Now after reading the above posts, i am very much in doubt. Lets wait for a week, with lots of PATIENCE, and we will know.

To the best of my knowledge, it does not matter whether one is EB1/ 2/ 3 or anything else as far as CP interview scheduling is concerned. It is purely first come first served basis assuming all other cp related paper work has been received from NVC or via AC I-140 packet and all administrative work related to that case is complete. It averages about 2.5 months (+/ -2 weeks) to get th interview once the packet 3 has reached the consulate!
 
I have been trying to access the US Consulate immigrant visa web page from the chennai consulate site since yesterday...its doing strange things. So if I click immigrant visa from their main consulate page it goes to a page which has no clickable options except it has a link that takes you back to US consulate page.

Hi,

Looking at previous months threads...usually around the 10th people started posting about interview dates for the following month. I was just wondering if anyone has found out yet about their interview. I called the consulate this past monday and as I said before they told me I should expect an interview in may or june...I didn't want to call again until march 15.
