[india 0]

hey guys

im new to this forum but has been visiting this site quite regularly and heard many success stories too. and really appriciate the way people are always ready to help others.

my situation is my cr1 interview was in new delhi on the 13april but they issued a 221g asking for the deatails of addresses and phone nos of all the relatives.which i submitted at vfs. after that i called the embassy in the firt week of may to kow the status of my application so they said it may take 3-4 weeks so call us in the first week of june. but before i could call them they sent my passport back witout any 221g or visa this time asking me to wait for their letter. and later i recieved a letterf satating that come for a second interview on july 18th.

now does is happen do they call for a second interview because i never read something like this on this forum or any other

its really frustrating when in the first interview i asked the officer do i need to come to the embassy he had said no u are done with the interview just submit the papers and u,ll get the visa and now again this stupid thing going all over again from the tension and anxiety i dont know why is delhi making life so hard for people like us.

I have heard that they do ask for people to come in again. a lawyer in america told me that if this happens to me, my fiance should bring updated proof of relationship, ie any emails and phone bills sent since the last interview. But he did say it does happen.

I have heard of a number of cases that got 221g (and in AP), being called for a second interview. Like cjindia said, just bring in updated proof of relationship and other necessary paperwork. Good luck!

As suggested by other posters, carry "updated" proof of relationship (emails, phone records, letters). Also, if my understanding of Consular Processing is right, this time the interviewer will be a local person and he/she will be from the Fraud Investigation Division(FID). He/she will ask some ackward/rude questions, be prepared to answer them calmly. Stick to the answers given at the first interview and don't offer any information which is not asked. There will be long silences, don't fall for it by getting nervous and trying to talk, don't babble, he/she will be looking for any bit of information which doesn't match, on which they can latch on and keep probing.

I would say it looks positive, since they have called for a second interview and not taken any action unilaterally.

Good Luck!!

Charuhans is exactly correct in his telling the second interview is with the fraud department and gives good advice.

The interview can be easy like the initial one or can be detailed like the one Chaurans mentioned. It all depends on the CO and whom he has do the investigational interview. When you go back for the second interview they can bring up informaton on either party they find questionable, to rule out that no money exchanged hands and the visa is for a payment only, or anything else. Many things factor in why they are questioning the relationship and they do not have to tell you what or why they are questioning. Your actions and comments will be what they are checking as well; so go and be well prepared.
