Possibly. I picked up my visa/passport today and will leave ASAP. Any advice when dealing with CBP? Assuming it'll be a "smooth" process.

Thank You!!!! I totally agree. I believe the consular weighed the positive factors in the case (deep ties to the US/approved 601-A waiver, home ownership, well paying career, no crimes committed, hardship resulting from a denial, docs I can't obtain, etc.) I wrote the consulate a letter outlining my background and life in the US. Not sure if that contributed.

In retrospect, I should have applied for advanced parole. The visa was issued. Waiting to pick up the passport.

The visa is Issued. Waiting for consulate to mail it. The PCC requirement from the consulate is from the regional passport office. You need to have an address in India to obtain this. I retained a local attorney to file the NVC..he said you don't need a PCC. Didn't mention the other docs on the table. In any event, the Consulate accepted my position. Also, what weight does an Indian PCC or any security check from the Indian consulate have over security databases utilized by the USCIS, DOS, etc? In my case, it wouldn't be too relevant since I've been in the US since the age of four and have had numerous biometric submissions since 2005. I understand your consular POV argument as well. I'm just happy the consulate approved.

How are the passports now tracked? Prior to this website upgrade, I'd login to ustraveldocs.com to see the tracking status or use the automated e-mail option. Thanks.

Background: -Overstayed visitor visa (arrived in 1987 at age 4). -601-A approved, father is the petitioner, DACA recipient since the program was introduced -Given approval after 10-15 mins interview. -Changed to refused a couple of days later due to not having the police clearance cert. from the regional passport office. The officer didn't even ask for this doc and questioned all of my US addresses. -NVC DQ the case without the PCC -Lawyers stated that I don't need this since this is for Indian nationals over the age of 16 and living in India. -Received a second 221g after sending in a doc that was rejected by Consulate. -Lawyers provided letter to the Consulate explaining their own guidelines and additional docs establishing US residence (in addition to docs sent to the NVC that were returned to me a few mins prior to the interview). -The case went from refused, AP, ready (a couple of date changes under the ready status). I'm trying to figure out if the Consulate will still request the police cert or will use their own databases to verify my criminal background? I don't have a criminal record and have submitted biometrics to the USCIS many times. I included this comment as part of the package submission in a hand written letter to the Consulate. I'm worried this will drag on forever.
