Congrats/All the best!
As per your previous postings, your case was fwd'ed to Chennai on: 09/25. EB3 cat
Your interview turned out to be on 12/17.

Perhaps since my case was fwd'ed to Chennai on 10/10; I may be in Dec/Jan borderline case... Chennai hasn't confirmed to me yet but had emailed earlier "likely Dec/Jan".

Curious – would you happen to know what means your Attorney used to find out your interview date?
 
Thanks apchennai. These days my guesswork is not working. But my gut says you will get a december interview as the case was sent before 10/20. Here is what my attorney sent to consulate with high priority.

Sun, Veeru:
Dont be tense about tickets. Get your interview dates. Below given are the names of some good travel agents who can help you get good deals to India. Try getting to Mumbai or Delhi if you cant get Chennai. After you are in India you can jump on to any local airline.

Gul ( Sardarni, Lady ): 630-351-5000

Krisbi Travel Inc (773) 561-4100

Ramaswamy( Thambi): 630-668-3300

Air Tours: (773) 764-4544


Call them in the order listed. Dont make mutliple bookings. Be assured of your dates and then call them. Be flexible about departure and arrival. Like Leave before Dec 10th. Come back on the 1st of Jan or Dec 31st or Dec 29th or Dec 25th.

Cheers,
Bapa
 
No date

Hi - I called the Madras Consulate on Tuesday and was informed that my interview was not yet scheduled and to call back after 10 days.

My papers (EB2) were received by the consulate on 10/8/02 and they replied to my email saying interview likely in Dec. Looks like they are still scheduling the appointments.
 
Thank you so so...........much Bapa

I am lucky to have such a support like this.

Can you send me the lists of Tel no for Madras consulate?
Please

PS: Sometimes when you call this #8112060, they don't pick up the line, so what you do is call 8112000 and ask them to transfer over to Consular Appointment section (green card). Worked for me!
 
E-mail is betterway of communicating to Chennai consulate. phone customer service is not so good. Just send an E-mail to night and you get a reply by tomorrow.

All of you please start migrating to other thread" Confirmed chennai December interviews"

Thanks
