Re: review complete this week, will I get sept

Since it's Mumbai, you've got a very good chance of making the Sept. list..

change of address

Hey guys,

My case was sent to Mumbai Consulate on 07/01/02. Mumbai Consulate replied saying most probably they will schdule me and my spouse in September.

My spouse is in India and has not come to US since we got married on April 28th this year. So she has India address in DS-230 part - I. But they have changed the address in India after filling for GC, i.e. moved to a different appartment from the address that is three in DS-230 part I.

I am here in US (in Pittsburgh). I too want to move to a different appartment before I go for interview in September ( assuming I will get in september). So again there will be a change of address than what I have in my DS-230 part I.

Do you guys know if it would be a problem ??

I think during interview you may ask to change of address. If it is not urgent hang on till October to same address to avoid any possible risk. By that time you will get your GC.

NVC sends if your case is current or is expected to become current within one yr. Mumbai schedules only after your case is current. But thats a prettry weird from Mumbai, the first time they have mentioned PD's for EB cases..

Case sent to consulate on 07/24

My case got forwarded to Mumbai consulate on 07/24 (Review date 07/16). I hope to get September inteview.... When should I send email to Mumbai consulate to inquire about likely interview date?

I believe they receive electronic notification earlier than actual physical papers? Anyone know, when exactly it happens?
 
My case sent to consulate today

Hoping for sept interview. The operator at NVC said that it takes 5 to 10 days for the case to reach the consulate.:)

No reply from Mumbai consulate?

My case was forwarded to Mumbai consulate on Wed, 07/24. I send them a mail asking for tentative interview date on 07/24 U.S. afternoon time.

Based on what I read here, I was expective reply very next day 07/25! But till today (07/26), I didn't receive any reply. Any idea, how long shall I wait, before sending 2nd mail?

It is likely that they ignore the mail sometime... OR they always send reply to mail....!
 
gkothari, you are right about DS 230 II questions

For your email wait today & may call them on Sunday Night (that will be Mondau morning in India).
Telephone# available in immihelp.com
 
Re: No reply from Mumbai consulate?

Don't worry. There have been a couple of times when I recd a reply the very next day and some other times when I never recd a reply or got a reply after 3 weeks!! I would suggest wait for a couple of days and then send them another email.

Case number given on 7/17 by Mumbai Consulate

sent them an email inquiring about interview date and PCC. They replied stating that they expect to schedule an interview in Sept and that no local PCC required.

Do we (my wife and I ) have to get our passports attested so that my name shows on her passport and vice versa...
Apparently, at Mumbai for H4 visas, that is a requirement. Wonder if they have this for IV's....

Any info on the above would be useful otherwise will shoot off an email to the Mumbai consulate....

Thx
 
H1-B Petition Extension?

Following are the details of my case.

Current H1B Petition expires on 11/30/2002
I-94 stamps expiry date is 12/10/2002

Case forwarded to Mumbai consulate : 07/24/2002

Likely interview date : 09/2002 or 10/2002

Shall I worry about asking my lawyer to apply for H1B extension (as normally H1-B extension process is started 3 months before expiry of current petition i.e. sometime around Aug/2002)?

OR I would be fine timeline wise and no need to worry about. Please let me know your opinion....

I wouldn't bother about the H1 right now.. If everything goes well, you should complete your CP well before that !! In any case, you need to make sure the INS receives your petition just one day prior to 11/30/2002 to continue to remain in valid H1 status :)
 
Case still not received by Mumbai consulate as of 07/29 (it was sent on 07/24)

Strange... Today (07/29), received email reply from Mumbai consulate that they still haven't received my case. NVC had forwarded the case to Mumbai consulate on Wed 07/24/2002....

Seems they didn't receive the electronic notification, as they used to receive !

Anyone else, whose case was forwarded on 07/24, heard anything back from consulate yet?
