Hi,

I am starting this thread as i did not see any thread for Q1-05 mumbai consulate interview.

My details:

Case Received at Mumbai Consulate: 12/01/04

Priority date: August 2001

Category: EB-3


Please add/share you information.

Thanks,

GC
 
gc_come_to_papa,

excellent link, tks for sharing it.

I checked my case status with NVC today and the AVM said that 'the case was completed' on 12/29/04. Does this mean that they have sent the case to the consulate? or does it take another week for them to send the case to the consulate?

also, i have checked cptracker and the best guess i can make is a possible interview date for me in late feb/early March. my consulate is mumbai. cud some experts shed their opinion on this? also, is there any information as to how the consulate schedules the interviews? for example, do they schedule EB interviews only in 2nd half of the month (like from 15th to 30th)? this is purely a guess on my part, i do not have any data to support this.

thanks.

You should have interview in March provided the priority dates in the visa bulletin remains current for your LC priority date. Bombay takes 60 days to schedule after they receive, interviews normally happen in 1st, 2nd and last week for employment categories..that's my observation.
 
Partyx,

I see that you have applied for 485 and done finger printing. Have you cancelled that process to go by CP process?
 
explorer_inc,

i have two apps. my primary app is 485 and my wife's primary is on CP, whichever comes first :)

also, tks for ur response above, gc_come_to _papa.
 
cut off date ?

What is cut off date every month by which packet 3 should arrive at consulate to get appointment at next available slot [ 60 days after].
 
by end of the month

Cut Off date is end of the month, my case reached mumbai on Dec 1st as per Mumbai Consulate and they hope to schedule in feb if the priority dates remain current.

Normally they request for visa number in the end of the month for the month following the next
 
Interview!!!!

Hi Guys,
Thanks for starting this thread. I sent my AC140 case to Bombay first week of Dec. The consulate has sent me a BMB no. waiting for the interview date to be published.
 
Anyone found out their interview dates so far for FEB 05

Hi,

Did anyone get any notification from Mumbai Consulate so far for next month interview dates. I guess they may be waiting for the visa bulletin to be published..

thanks,

I don't remember putting out this kind of list. This information has likely come
from jeet0404's post.
