You are almost there hun! Not even a day left! I know the last few hours are the worst but think back as to how far you have come since you started this crazy journey. The interview is going to go great and you'll be happily together in the US soon!

How is husby handling it? Is he nervous?

Raj

awesome! guess you went to collect it in person, huh? did you call vfs ahead and tell them to not courier it and just that you would come and pick it up?

my wife called up chennai and asked them what to submit to the VFS in bangalore - they said just the 387 Rs. i was a bit surprised; figured that they would ask her to give the medical report, but i guess she'll just take everything to the interview on the 10th. at this point, i dont know what the point of the VFS is - if you can pick up the passport yourself, then they're just making money for nothing...figures...

anyone keeping up with the latest ridiculousness with the indian govt and how they're treating PIOs (ppl of indian origin) who are US citizens??? any US citizen of indian origin applying for an OCI card, or any kind of indian visa has to cough up another extra f*****n 175 US dollars to get a stupid surrender certificate saying that they renounced their indian citizenship; never mind the fact that when you get US citizenship, by default, you surrender any other nationality. more reasons to just get the h*** out of India and the indian system...no wonder they're seeing the brain drain, with all this kind of BS and nonsense...

Once in awhile, right in the middle of an ordinary life, love gives us a fairy tale - My beautiful wife Soni
