Everyone is disappointed from the horrendous waiting times they facing. It does not make sense to wait at least 8 years to reunite with their families. How many 8 years do I have in my life time!!!??? This has to change.

I agree with your sentiments! My PD is 21 Apr, 2008 for all countries and I too have not heard anything from NVC to start the process. Let us keep each other updated. Thanks for the support. Good Luck to everyone!

Documents
Birth Certificates
Available. Prior to l970, the reporting of births was voluntary. Birth certificates of Europeans, Anglo-Indians, Armenian Christians, Jews and Parsis born prior to l970 may be obtained from the State Registrar General of Births, Deaths, and Marriages. No standard or uniform certificate is issued by the authorities. In addition, acceptable certificates may often be obtained from the municipal and rural registration records, which are maintained under the state laws. Europeans, Anglo-Indians, and Indian Christians are usually able to obtain church baptismal certificates.
Under the Registration of Births and Deaths Act of l969, births are required to be registered in almost all of the States and Union Territories of India. Birth certificates are available to any applicant born on or after April l, l970, upon payment of a nominal fee to the appropriate authority.
In cases where birth certificates from the authorities are unavailable or contain insufficient information regarding the birth or the parents, a sworn affidavit executed by either the parents, if living, or other close relatives older than the applicant, may be submitted. It should set forth the relationship between the deponent and the applicant, how well the deponent knows the applicant, date and place of the applicant's birth, the names of both parents, and any other related facts. Such an affidavit, when a birth certificate is unavailable, should be accompanied by a document from a competent governmental authority confirming that the certificate does not exist, or no longer exists.

Damn, we are not included.

Obama said he will act on immigration using his executive powers after Midterm Election which took place yesterday. The rumors in the news that he will grant amnesty to illegal immigrants in the US, and will give them green cards and/or work authorization. I believe it is totally unfair to take care of the illegals before those who went through the legal paths and waited for years. Please send emails to the white house explaining that an immigration reform should include fixing the legal immigration long waiting times before granting illegals green cards. Also, ask your parents to send emails to senators in their respective states. WE NEED TO ACT!
This is the link to contacting the white house. http://www.whitehouse.gov/contact
your parents would find the email of their senators on the senator's website.
