thanks! my wife finally got the physical interview letter in the mail a couple of days ago. i guess it took them almost a month to reach her (?!). Anyways, good luck on your trip to the US and the PoE.

Chintu is up real soon and SJ just a day before mine. I get to chennai June 9th. All you chennai-ites - rock your interviews and be confident. you've all come a long way and dont worry about the questions or anything. remember, these folks just wanna have a friendly conversation with you, that's all. So be confident and best of luck to y'all. btw, chintu and SJ, are you planning to be in chennai for your wives' interviews?

I am not planning on being there for her interview. But my wife hasnt received the hard copy interview letter yet. I hope they honor the email.

Removal of Conditions:

07/02/2012 - Sent I-751 packet via USPS

Congrats for the approval/ticket bought. I seriously need to calm down...the interview is less than a week away. And I'm so nervous still....Too bad there's really no recent embassy review for CR1 for the embassy in Hong Kong...I'm so worried....
