We are also at NVC (just filed the DS-230) and hopefully will be in Delhi shortly. BTW, my spouse got a letter in the mail from an agency in Chennai asking her if she would like them to be her agent. Hey even had her phone number and case number. Where did they get this information I wonder.

Delhi -- from what I could glean from the embassy website and from VJ archives and resprted timelines, I think it is taking 2 months to get an interview date after the case gets to the consulate in Delhi. Ugh!!!

I am still a bit unclear about what forms my wife will be required to fill out, the "original passport leter", how much money to take (and in what format), where she will submit the documents prior to the interview etc.

Still much to read and research :-).

KP

We are at NVC now but will be going to Delhi. Any news from Delhi?

Vishrit -- instead of a PM, can you please post your experience on the forum? I am sure that there are a lot of people wanting to know about it (like what was the general process, what kind of questions were asked, what evidence of relationship was asked for etc.etc.).

Thanks in advance,

KP

My Fiance just gave her interview on July 24th, 2006 for K1 so if you guys need any information about the process, please send me a personal message.

Thanks,

Folks, I found an old thread which kinda slipped off the radar which talks about the Mumbai embassy. It is at http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=88

There is some good information there (and it's quite long :-).

KP

Any experiences from the New Delhi consulate? Our paperwork is on its way to New Delhi now. I'm soooo nervous about this. Does anyone have any advice about New Delhi?

I really dont know why we have been under AP for 11 1/2 months. My guess is my husbands name is too common. we both have been interviewed and my husbands family has been interviewed 2 times. I wish they hurry up and grant us the visa. I dont know what else they want. :( I hope good news comes our way. (F)
