Congrats Esterella on your interview.

Wife is enroute to Chennai with my MIL. Medical tomorrow morning. Wheeew I kept calling her yesterday to make sure she had all the papers and slipped in an interview question here and there between conversations. She was like stop making me nervous ......... Looks like she got it all under control so I am taking it easy this weekend. devil.gif

One of her aquaintance had an CR1 interview in Chennai yesterday . He did not have the 2009 tax documents so they are waiting for him to send it in before they can issue a visa. Folks take your 2009 Tax documnets with you for the interview. If you filed for an extension show proof of that.

Happy May everybody. yes.gif
