Our cases were already transfered to DC office. The appmnt was on my name but they let us both in given a token and waited for 10 mins or so and then were called to the window. We were done with our ead questions in 5 mins. Both of us were given different tokens so went to different windows.

- iEAD applications must have a duplicate application prepared with documents. they check before you get in



- make sure you have an address in NJ, they ask proof of residence in NJ to issue your documents, bring DL, utility bill etc to prove that.



- got the card the same day for 8 months,



- they lost our documents, then found them in the 3'rd office where your pictures will be taken

I have contacted you in the month of June, 05 regarding my F1-H1 Issue. My H1-B visa was approved by the American Consulate in Mumbai with out any problems and I am in the US right now. I would like to genuinely thank you for all your help and advise and I am glad that I took your services as I tried a number of lawyers before you and everyone gave me conflicting advises. I am writing to you my whole experience in detail so that you can put this in forum as other people may get help from this.

I was in India for my H1 stamping during Dec 2004. This is my first H1 stamping after my OPT. During my first interview the consulate asked me general questions like:

Where do you work ?

what is you daily routine work ?

what is your Boss's name ?

How much do you get paid ?

At last it is over - the wait and agony of many years!



First, I want to thank this spectacular group and everyone who have shared their views and ideas... this forum has been a great asset for everyone appearing for CP.





Last stage of my Green Card experience went through a tough ride and we saw a lots of tipsy turvy roads.



Here is my journey of the GC:



Mar 2003 - Applied for labour.

May 2006 - Applied for I-140.

June 2006 - I-140 got approved.

November 2006 - Applied for CP

Hi everyone. I am back as a permanent resident. Had a successful interview. The interview was pretty easy, a young american guy asked me a couple questions regarding my work and then told me my file was fine but the fingerpritning machine was down so to please wait. I waited for 30 mins and then was asked to go back on Friday. The lines outside the Mumbai consulate are awful, be prpeared to wait for a long time in the hot sun. Since the fingerprinting system was down the day of my interview I was asked to go back along with all the other immigrant visa applications for that day.

Folks,

Yes its true. Ever since I met my wife to be in Sept 03, I was waiting for this day. The day she could join me in the US. Today is the day this dream becomes a reality. Today is the first day of the rest of my life!
