Not trying to be a bad sport or a bad person.....

Lets post details pertaining to the title of the thread.......
I guess it is getting a bit confusing shifting from 'oct thread' and 'nov thread'..... Sorry for being a jerk!

My case was sent to chennai on 8/27. Expecting interview in November.

Re: Not trying to be a bad sport or a bad person.....

Ravi,

i agree with you.

But everytime you send an email to CHENNAI consulate, they reply back saying "probably oct/nov or nov/dec" .

what iam trying to say is, till the 15th of any month the confusion prevails.
The consulate releases the appt-dates for the coming-month on 15th.

I guess till then there will be an OVERLAP, we like it or not.

i also noticed that many people who thought they might have "NOV" interview actually got real-lucky to sail for OCT.


Iam positive on Nov interview for myself, coz "Case sent to chennai by NVC " on 09/10/2002.

i also sent an email to Chennai consulate and waiting for a reply.

Saradao, what is your Status. ??


Thanks,
LocalMadras.

Re: Hi

Hi RkReddy,

I am certain that your case should have reached chennai by now.... why don't you call chennai and find out.....
You should call (91 44) 811 2000, and ask for immigrant visa interview status.... they would then transfer you to the consular services, and you can find out more then...... call them after 9:00am india time.

all the best.

NVC sent 09/10/02

My Info : EB3 VSC, P3 Reviewed Aug 30th '02
P3 sent to Chennai Consulate Sep 10th '02


I am expecting to get an interview in the month of November.
December would be a difficult month to travel. Is there any way
to find out early enough.

Please post you views and experience.

NVC sent to Chennai 09/10/2002

I started a Nov thread since I did not find one, but there was already a thread. I amnot able to delete the thread now.

Anyway my info is EB3 VSC, NVC reviewed case 08/30/2002
NVC sent case to Chennai by DHL on 09/10/2002, what is the chance for getting a Nov interview. I see that quite a few guys are positive about getting a Nov interview.

Hi Kd6809,

Usually if your case is received by chennai by the 20th of a month, you can expect an interview in the 2nd month after they received.
i.e, you should be getting Nov interview.
since your pkt3 was sent to chennai on 9/10, they should have received it by now... either send an email or call them to check if they have received your pkt 3......

Chennai not responding to mail

Thanks for the analysis Ravi, I really want to make it in Nov.

I did mail Chennai yesterday, but I guess they are nod responding to the question for which they dont have an answer yet. Like you said they will only know in the beggining of next month at the earliest. I will cal them up today night I guess and find out if they atleast received the case and have entered into thier systems.
Do they respond to the calls made from here ?

Hi,

My case got forwarded to chennai today. What is the mail id I need to use to inform my indian address to chennai consulate for posting P4. Are there any specifications like mentioning case number in subject etc... Thanks for your help in advance...
 
just mention your case number and ask for status of your case and you get a reply from them saying
'Yes,Received your case...appt likely to be in nov/dec....
??
Hey guys..Did you review the oct list from chennai??
some of the E3 candidates got their interviews somewhere in the first week of october???
so pls dont pre-assume that you are gonna be in the last week of november...
 
Talked to Chennai , just now

I talked to Chennai just now (11:50pm EST) and they told me that they have received my case papers. When I asked the received date they said sometime end of August. But as per NVC they sent it on the 09/10/2002.

Anyway as far as they got it in time it does not matter, but just as an FYI there might be a slight dealy in entering our details on the NVC systems . So the dates might not be exact. Secondly they send some stuff electronically too. I am not sure when they send those.

She even said that that the interview could be somewhere in the end of Nov but however I will have to check beginning of Oct for that.

I am keeping my fingers crossed.

i will be sending an email Next-week, to notify them about my chennai-address for PACKET-4.
