No Puru, all that has changed, coz I remember we received both GC n SSN in less than a month. SSN officials do not entertain you unless you have your GC. They will just check the system and let you know if there is any update, thats it. They are very curt.

Take your written test and drive test, but they will give you permanent license card only after they see your SSN. Till then you will be given temporary paper license, for up to 3 months.

My son passed his driving test in about two weeks, as he went round with his dad and brother as soon as he was here. So test for temporary license in the first week and the following week he got his license. Do those DMV quizzes online it helps a lot. All the best Kiddo!

And take it easy, enjoy with your family, yeah I know here people are so busy, no time for anyone,

Hey Chubbs!!

Yesterday I went to SSA office in Mountain View and filled up the form to apply for SSN as they told me to do so. I carried my passport and the lady told me to fill the form and submit it. She gave me back the receipt and told me that I will receive my SSN card in next 2 weeks. Whereas, there's no update about the greencard so far, though I have read many posts on internet and the USCIS website itself suggests to call National Customer number if the greencard and the welcome letter doesnt delivered within a month. I will wait till 07th October and will call this number to remind them to work on it if I wont receive it within the stipulated time frame.

By the way, its raining from last 2 days and quite chilly weather out here whereas it was very hot a few days back. I never experienced this kinda strange situation before, how the weather in valley so far?? I heard that its quite warm from Stockton to Fresno to Bakersfield, is it??

Oh cool. Well, fingers crossed, keep me posted!

I'm selfishly hoping the PDs jump ahead, what with the new outlines

Hi Puru,

Im sure you will receive your GC in the next couple of days!! yeah Bay Area has fantastic weather, Fresno is hot and somedays are cloudy with hardly any rain our side. mornings & nights are pleasant now. I am leaving for India on 22 Oct for 4 months. Hope you will be settled soon and what about jobs? are you planning to study further or just look for a job? All the very best Puru! God bless!

Chubbs/Puru,

I am planning to go to Pakistan to sell the property and have a question that if it take longer can my daughter come to USA alone and stay with my sister and I can come back later or I have to be in USA or have to come back with her. Just wanted to know the law/rule

I asked similar question but I was told that I can't be allowed in unless my petitioner is in the US. But I don't know how they can find out if you are a citizen.

Hello Everyone,

My brother's case was completed on 22nd sept. His PD (Jan, 2016) is already current but we haven't received any IL yet. I called NVC last week and they told that interview hasn't been scheduled and will be scheduled when visa will become available.

What does it mean "When visa will become available"? I told her that PD is already current but still didn't get any answer from them.

What do you guys think, when will we receive IL? Pls. help.

Thanks
