Is there any requirement like "There should be atleast 2 business days of gap between physician's visit (medicals) and VI interview"?

My interview is on June 17 and plannig to complete medicals on 15th evening. Do you see any problem.
 
piska:

I-134 is required only for those dependents who are undergoing the cp process. So since you are primary and your children are US Citizens, you will need to execute only 1 I-134 for your wife although she is not in usa currently. Do you mean Q 9 & 10 of I-134?

Q 9&10. Will be YES if your wife was in usa on h-4 that was dependent on your h-1b. Will be NO if she has never entered usa on h-4 that was dependent on your h-1b.

Q11. Is a check box? There is no yes/ no??? I guess the answer would be "Intend to"
 
mubal:

There is no such requirement. It is just RECOMMENDED to keep a 2-3 day gap between medicals and cp interview date to work out medical issues or extra vaccinations if any that may be required by a specific individual which a general public may not need to. Medical report are given the same evening of the medical check up. Do not expect any medical delays assuming you & derivative candidates have been maintaining good health and no past medical history of communicable nature.
 
Question from I-134

For Question 10 .....That i have submitted visa petition to the INS on behalf of the person(s).If none.....state none

In my case i was not married when i filed my I-140.But my lawyer said that he mentioned my wife's name as fiancee.So how should i fill that column?Please guide me...

BJ:

Enter names of only those folks for whom you have previously executed I-134. For instance, if your parents or in-laws have visited you in usa then more than likely you have executed I-134 as an affidavit of support for their visitor visa. Or if you wife is in usa on h-4 visa then you have executed i-134 for her h-4 visa. So not knowing for whom you have executed i-134, it is difficult to answer this question. All one can say is enter details of only those for whom you have executed i-134 in the past!
 
Correct me if i am wrong.....

kd:

In I-134

Q.no:9.That I have previously submitted affidavit(s) of support for the following person(s).If none, state "None".

In this column i will be mentioning NONE

Q.no:10.That i have submitted visa petition to the INS on behalf of the person(s).If none.....state none

In this column i have to mention my spouse's name...

I have not given any affidavit of support as of now.None of my family members have visited U.S.I got my spouse the H-4 visa.I did not give any I-134 for that also.She is in India to complete her degree.She may join me when i go for the green card interview. Since i got her the H-4 visa i have to mention her name in that column.Am i right???? Correct me if i am wrong....

{You are right if you have never submitted the I-134s for anyone}

Q.no:10.That i have submitted visa petition to the INS on behalf of the person(s).If none.....state none

In this column i have to mention my spouse's name...

{For this item also you have to say 'None' . Since as a H1B holder
you are not eligible to file a petition for anyone. For your wife's
H4 also your employer would have been the petitioner, and for your
Green Card also your employer is the petitioner for you and also for
your wife (as dependent) }

I have not given any affidavit of support as of now.None of my family members have visited U.S.I got my spouse the H-4 visa.I did not give any I-134 for that also.She is in India to complete her degree.She may join me when i go for the green card interview.

I am seeing in the BMB thread all the June'04 candidates started getting their P4 appointment letter in US.
Did any of the Chennai June'04 guys got their appointment letter in US?
Does Chennai mail the P4 to US address directly or through Indian consulate?

Regards,
Rams.
 
rams:

ALL Indian P4's are mailed to a consulate in usa (washington dc indian consulate) from where 1 copy is mailed to attorney and 1 copy to the candidate.

This is incorrect, why should US consulate mail anything to Indian consulate? I Hope you are talking about packet 4 for immigrant visas, not Police clearance certs.

My friend, Kd is talking about Packet-4 . P-4 means Packet 4. He is right all P-4 are mailed from Us embassy abroad to Indina Consulate in USA and then forwarded to the cadidates.
 
Hi Victor and KD,

This is an interesting clarification -- I didn't realize that our favorite Embassy in DC acts as a post office for routing P4s! Hopefully they do it expeditiously.

Bye,

nkm:

This is what my attorney had told me since when i saw a washington dc postal stamp on my P4 envelope last year I had asked my attorney why washington dc stamp AND also i had read something similar either on murthy forum/ ron gotcher forum. The way it was explained ot me is that the US consulates mail all P4 to respective country consulates/ embassies in usa. So indian P4 goes from an usa consulate in india to an indian consulate in usa, russian P4 goes from a usa consulate in russia to a russian consulate/ embassy in usa and so on.
 
What is the time limit for P4?

My case is there in chennai as of May 19.I am expecting a July interview :rolleyes: .....But i am not sure that when can i expect my P4. Based on thumb rule is there any time limit that the chennai consulate would send the P4 after receiving the application.If so please let me know...

Many Thanks

One can expect P4 at a usa address around 25-30th of the month when the interview dates are published!
