Hello,

For Mumbai consulate, do we do the biometrics on the day of the interview or before? On the consulate website, it mentions about making payment.. I wonder about the draft and for how much... any idea... ?! :luv:

I m not sure about Draft and payment..

But biometrics must have to be finish one day before.

You can't do on a same day.

my wife has interview at 7.30am and Biometrics on Sunday at 1pm.

Called and spoke with Agent Jim and he made my heart sank when he said he thought they were done scheduling for the month but then he put me on hold and comes back and says they're done with round 1 and will be starting round 2 in the near future. Sigh. :clock:

I think that's great news, actually! First I've heard of a timeline from one of our NVC friends. All of the data is saying sometime in the next 2-3 days. If they wanted to wait longer for the 2nd round than any past month, they'd wait til next week. Even that's pushing it based on the past scheduling trends.

Main thing - there will be another round of scheduling for August; otherwise, late June CCs get September interviews. That really would be strange considering, some people with early June CCs got scheduled June 10-11 (second round of July scheduling) for early July interviews.

YAY! CONGRATS!! :dance::dance::dance::dance:

CONGRATS and thanks!!!!!!

Congratulations, I read your review and thank you for posting it. I have a question, it takes 1 to 11/2 weeks to get the visa? Can I pick the visa up at the Consulate? I want as soon as possible to move and I have trip plans for the first week of September. I am hoping for mid August interview. Anyways not to take your joy out, have fun in Montreal, so many activities (Jazz festival) etc and a happy life with your spouse. Again I am happy for you!

Congrats!!! :dancing:

[...]

I love it when the plan (finally) comes together. I can almost feel your relief.

[...].

Case Completed today, July 8th ... another Brit reporting for Interview duty lol :dance::dance::dance:

Thank you all so very much! Cheers coming from those who understand the process in detail mean a lot. :luv:

And Congratulations urbangirluk!! :goofy: :goofy: :goofy:

ArthurandMarcela, I'm not sure about picking up the visa. I know they want the Loomis forms at the door, so maybe you'll have to ask at the Consulate, or maybe someone else knows the answer to that.
