**likely November 2002 Interview Tracker- Chennai Consulate **

Re: Re: Case sent to Chennai

Hi Murali,

There would be no time-advantage/disadvantage by asking chennai to send the pkt4 to the local address.
In the past, people in the US did not receive pkt4 for what ever reasons, so it is a good idea to ask chennai to send it to local address in india.
I am certain that even if you give your indian address, you will receive pkt4 to both of your addresses.

by giving the local address, will there be a significant advantage and what address you have kept in your DS-230, By giving the local address the mail time would be reduced i guess is that the only advantage or any thing else..

Re: Re: Case sent to Chennai

I agree with Ravi. If you specify local address, you will recieve P4 in US in addition to the one you recieve in India.

Hi all,

When should I send my local address to Chennai for my P4 to be mailed? Do I have to wait till NVC confirms that they have mailed my Packet to India or should I send it right now? Any inputs is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Hi chad,GetGCNow/all,

I received a similar reply from chennai, "check back with us in the 2nd week of Sep".
Also, I have given them my local address to send my P4, for which, they replied "yes, your local address is noted"
I would suggest everybody, provide them with your local address.

Thanks

Hi rkreddy,
You need to wait until chennai receives your case.

Hi Murali,
Yes, that is all you need to do. Once chennai confirms receipt of your case, just ask them to send a copy of pkt4 to an address in india.

update on my CASE...

Called NVC to make sure everything is going okay.

Eventhough my wife's name was included in the Beneficiary-list, they insisted me to FAX THE MARRIAGE-CERTIFICATE.

Faxed the marriage-cert, and called them back (luckily i got the same operator) and verified that they recd it.

Waiting for the review to be done...

hopeful for Nov interview , and optimistic for Dec interview... :)

what do you all say about my Interview-hopes :-?

november~!~

how is everyone's H-1B doing..?Mine expired Yesterday(Sep-1st) but our company has applied for extension in May of 2002...
H-1B ND -june 3rd 2002
update ---takes anywhere between 90-180 days....
btw
How much did you guys pay to NVC here while your P3 is processed??
I paid 520$ (I guess 260$ for me and $260 for my wife).
Gone through many posts and found out that some guys paid 335$ both for him and his wife
 
Re: november~!~

Hi Reeses
Welcome to the thread. I am also in the same boat meaning november interview(hopefully) my p3 was sent to chennai on Aug 20th and my H-1B visa is expiring on oct 26th, so my company applied for premium processing. I paid $335 for myself and for my wife when i sent my p3 to NVC.

Thats interesting chad.....
My wife is on an H-1B visa...Is your wife on H-4 visa or on H-1??
That shouldnt make a difference though...
The bar coded sheet in Pkt-3 indicated that I have to pay 520$ and they have Cashed the cheque...No questions asked.....

When did you receive your P3 ??I rec'd some where on june 3rd or so...
Have the rules changed after that??

Any ideas??
 
Chennai Interview

hi guys & gals,

My case was approved on Aug 16th, I got a letter
dated Aug 20th from NVC stating that my case has been sent
to Chennai and I should contact them for any enquiries.
Also they have mentioned that I should get 3 Years
of Tax Transcripts. I got the tax transcripts from IRS..
chennai has asked me to get back with them next week.
Thats my update

thanks
 
Perfect GetGC****
You should be getting Oct interview I guess...
when did you receive the letter dated august 20th???

Did they add a new step to this painstaking process or what
to delay things???

3 yrs transcripts from IRS
PCC from indian consulate
bank statement from your bank
and others are always there.....
shop out for your tickets man!!!!
