There should be two in there.  I remember them being taken out when I entered the USA as well.  

Brilliant . Thanks! That was the only piece that I wasn't sure about. Thanks for confirming. I have the packet put together now and will see what the embassy wants me to do. Really appreciate your response.

Just wanted to close the loop on this thread for future readers. I heard back from the Embassy and visited them early Thursday. My Fiance was all tears and told them what happened and explained we had a ticket for that night. They were kind enough to reseal our envelope in about 20 minutes ! We got real lucky (finally!) . I am now typing this from the USA where my Fiance and my daughter are spending a nice relaxing weekend. 😁

 

Couple of lessons for the next sucker who goes through this . These points are specific to the Mumbai embassy, but may apply elsewhere

 

1) "Resealing" seems be a well known service that the Mumbai Embassy provides . All the handlers outside the embassy knew about the "resealing"  .  I guess enough people must have their envelopes accidentally open or something and ofcourse there's the occasional buffoon like us. 

2)  The only way to contact the embassy was through the official email (ustraveldocs) . They responded 2 business days later and asked me to come in any business day at 730 am. Their email specifically said an appointment isn't required for resealing. 

 

Thanks all for your support folks.

Thank you for updating us!  I'm glad they were able to reseal it for you so quickly.
