GGT

they r holding 2 tickets (2 different airlines ) but i will finalise after interview...

u still hv 2 show ur snaps....mind..it

tat was 2 small.lol.

gaurav

i had 3 of them. even i did nt show them any previous recors.

u dont need to worry about that. they r expert in this. this is everyday's work for them. so go there and get it done.

no need to think abt how many and all this..

gaurav

thanks mala.

still 1-2 days left..

pray for us plz.

as u r very well aware how difficult it is to stay away from ur life partner..

gaurav

dnt worry for holidays mala. they shall nt schedule ur interviews on saturdays..lol..

stay cool

i would simply suggest go with the maiden name yet. u can get all this funda's in indian embassy in u.s. its better if we keep things less complicated as already there are lot of documents to file...

gaurav

hi mala

passport office certificate is valid for six months only..

local police station reports are valid for one year.

yes, u need police certificates from all places where u stayed more than six months. if u hv mentioned in g325 forms.

gaurav

generally both should go while dcf. but still depends on the consulate..whether tokyo has got waiver.

hi mala

for passport office pol.cert. u dont even need to go urself.

just give it to any travel agent hu does all this passport work.he will bring it back in a day. they charge like 100-200 more than the official fee..tats it.

tats all i did. nd its valid for 6 months. i got it in end of january and its still valid in june...

so u can hv it..

for local police report, u need to go to ssp office personally, file a application there..they send this report to your nearest local police station. this police station will contact you..get this enquiry earliest possible.its possible only with money.then again they send it back to ssp office. where u get d police report..

follow properly..then it does nt take time.

gaurav

they give all documents back at time of interview. except medical report,which they keep.......but vaccine details,they give u back....as v need it when v reach there.

but remeber dnt open d medical envelop. they do it themselves at embassy otherwise its nt valid.

gaurav

i can understand how u both r worried-sandip and mala....

this wait is just...........

even im waiting for long....

hey mala, dnt say girls always cry....lol..my wife is cool nd believes in god always nd just says dont worry god will do everything right....only im d one screaming at this situation.

i hope our wait ends next week...

gud luck to u both also.....

gaurav

well i submitted as proof of relationship in vfs

some emails-nt so many as v generally talk online

hotel bills..

wedding nd non wedding snaps.... i think 22-24

phone bills i cud nt give...as i was in other country...nd even now for india i could nt get details...nd even my wife use phone cards...

i hope this proof is sufficient....

just waiting for my interview on 27th how it goes........

gaurav

but the consular rate for fee changes from time to time....

currently it is 42

its really bad.....from embassy's side...

but do u hv any age difference, different ethnicity or second marriage or something..............

how can they just reject...............

its always better to file the papers before interview..

ya, in ds-230 part ii there was a column for that....

ya they do..v did tat..but the prior condition for u.s citizen to stay here was 90 days before filing till 1st june,2007.

present u check with embassy website..it may b six months now. but not sure.....

gaurav

thanks mala....

i will write my experience 2...

do suggest me also wat more evidences nd additional papers i should carry....i dont wanna delay more...

gaurav

but mala,

as v r doing cr1 visas, v don't need to apply separately for ssn. this reply i got from some other posts...

also when i filled ds-230 part ii.... there was a column for ssn to be assigned...

so i think v dont need to go for it.....it comes itself...

Gaurav

do v need appy ssn separately or it comes automatically with green card...... in cr1 visa....
