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

You dont need to do this.

What time is better with respect to getting connected to the person faster? How long is general wait time? Please let us know based on your own experiences...

I believe there is only one number to call Phone: (91 22) 363-3611 (as per their website).... Does any one know direct number to Immigration section?

Was anyone successful getting reply back from the Mumbai consulate regarding interview date? I have been trying (email/tel) without luck since past 1 week....

Has anyone whose case was sent on 07/24, heard about probable interview date?

Yes,
I have sent an email twice on 23rd and got one reply very next day and another today.
 
Got reply to email from Mumbai today, saying "hopefully will be scheduled for sept 2002".
I think we can get confirmation only around 8th of this month.
 
Mumbai consulate email turnaround appx 4-5 days !

Mail sent on 07/29 got replied back on 08/02 with following messages....

"You are most likely to be scheduled for the immigrant visa appointment for the month of October 2002. You may visit our web site around mid September for October appointment. "

When I spoke to operator, she asked me to re-check with them on 7/8 Aug, if they can accomodate me in Sept list... Hoping for the best.....

Best time to call Mumbai consulate is between 2:00pm to 4:00pm Mumbai time...
 
Welcome August

Today is 4th of August and all potential September candidate are expecting to know by or before 15 of August. Let us make sure if any one of us get any confirmation of date post it here immediately.:)
 
I think my packet recd around july4th approximately and i recd a reply yesterday saying that "my interview would be in october". Actually, I recd an email about 2 weeks back saying that "my interview would be in september", now i am not sure whats going to happen.

According to the statistics from the previous months, i should get in september.

Let's see.

Do you know when a case number was assigned? Was it on July 4th....coz if that was the case, I would have expected a sept interview for u.

A case number was assigned to me around July 15th and my AC-140 packet was probably received around June 19th.

My case number was assigned in June, but they needed some more documents which they recd around July 4th.

So, I was expecting sept but now....

Sir/Madam,

I have applied for an Immigrant Visa Application for Consular Processing at your post. The packet 3 for my case was forwarded to your office on <date>. My details are:

Name: < name >
INS Receipt No.: < INS reciept no. >
NVC Case No: < NVC case no. >

I understand that my interview date is likely in September, 2002. Unfortunately, I will not be able to travel to India until November, 2002. So, I would like to request for a postponement of my interview date to the month of November. Suitable times for me are the week of November 18th or November 25th. Any day of either week will be fine.

Additionally, I also request for my packet 4 to be sent to the following local address in Mumbai:

< local address >

Thank you for kind attention in the above matters.

Sincerely,

< name >
