I am planning to go to India this December. Trying to get Surrender Certificate to apply for visit visa.
Houston Consulate received the application for Surrender Certificate on August 11. Today is Oct 1 and no surrender certificate yet.
Called Travisa and they require the surrender certificate for any processing.
Never thought the Surrender Certificate itself could take 2 months (or more?) Just wondering whether anyone has recent experience of getting the SC back from Houston and how much time it took. Any ideas to make the trip happen by Dec? Driving down personally over to Houston is of any use? So far in spite of repeated attempts never got to talk to anyone in person at Houston. Ofcourse the emails are not replied either.
