Hi guys
Appt letter said 8 am.
Got there aT 7 10 am. Security officer took pleasure in shouting out the instructions on how everyone should line up and the things that will not be allowed in consulate.
Had laptop bag with documents in it. That was searched and i was ASKED TO GO IN AND HAVE A SEAT>
7 30 am Lady said all applicants please come to window 4 and give appointment letter. she then gave us a social security form to fill and said take a seat. In literally five minutes, my name was called to window 5. The lady asked for all my documents. they were held to gether with a paper clip. she took the whole pile and started soughting through.
She then said why i didnt change my name on the passport.
She said " I dont think the consular officer will issue the GC in your maiden nme. she wills end u back to get it changed first"
she made me sign the form again
Then this collection process took 35 minutes. She verified each line on form DS. she then opened the passport and correctly entered all the info about travel dates to US.
Then she said t pay the US260 eachw ith the form she gave me. I took it back to her and she asked us to sit.
@ minutes fter sitting the consular officer cals my name (Americam white female) we go to the counter. She asks if i am............ I say yes, she said to swear............ i did and signed. Then it was my husbands turn he sweare adn signed. She said congrats and told us to come at 3 00 pm. when we stepped outside it was 9 00 am sharp
went back at 2 45 pm. Officer came with 2 envelopes AND EXPLAiNED EVERYTHING TO US. SHE ALSO GAVE A white paper re: socoal security.
She congratulated us and we left

Points to note
. DS forms part 1 and 2
. Birth sertificate
. Marriage certificate
. Police certicicate
. job offer letter
. employers income letter/financial statement
. 3 photos
. medical sealed with x ray
. passport

that was all i gave
they returned the 1 134 for my spouse. job offer was sufficient
Hope this helps

Hi Ras\' : Why did they ask for Employers financial statement / income report. This might have got submitted at the time of filing I-140. I guess, the consulate never ask for this document. Could you please clarify this ?
 
When i got

the pkt 4 from the embassy it said sponsor W2. So when i contacted them for the employment letter i told them they also asked for financial statement so they sent that
I submitted it but they never looked at it at the consulate. All that info was in my file already which the lady had open on the counter. i saw a paper with approved stamped all over it in red with my name on it..The rest i couldnt read cos it was in fine print

Hope this helps

Hi Rashid,
   How much time did it take for you to get the appointment in CP after your I140 is cleared. As my I140 got cleared last friday and I have already send my passports for PCC, as it takes more than a month. So hopefully the PCC would be valid until I get my CP interview.

1. Download Misc. form from CGNY site and fill it up.
2. Fee $ 20 for each applicant
3. Attach one photo of each applicant.
4. Carry a copy of each passport( Carry original also, just they will check and give you back).
They will issue PCC after 45 days( sometimes you get it in 10days)

Web site is http://www.indiacgny.org
 
PCC

But I stayed in India for 7 months on a Business Trip even though I got paid / pay slip from the company in Chicago. In that case what should I do.
thanks much tingc for ur quick response.
