I got my interview date from NVC finally! its 28th may!!

Ze22: any idea what are the documents need to be submitted at VFS prior to interview? should we pay any more fees??

Congrats Dunhill :thumbs::star::star:

even if you have submitted all original documents to NVC should we again submit it at VFS prior to interview. Isn't it enough to take it along with us for interview?

1. do we have to submit the documents at VFS? what if we dont?

can we just pay 365 Rs and say that i will submit the documents on the interview date?

2. WHEN WE GO TO THE VFS, do we need to show the interview letter. what if we have not got it but the consulate emailed us we have an interview ,..can i just print it and show that to them?

3. how many emails everybody is taking to show the proof of relationship? will the actually read them?

Thanks in advance

Hi guys, please let me know your comments..

Does Chennai care if the marriage was arranged and it is between first cousins ...?

is there anyway that they can come to know? Will it be a problem at all?

Is there any law in US that is against Cousin marraige?

Please let me know this fast....

This should not be a problem at all because all officers who take interviews are well informed about our culture & life styles.

God luck!
