I got my medicals done in Chennai in early November, thought I would post my experience while it is still fresh in my memory.Note that I am not a Chennai resident - I reached Chennai at 6AM on the test day, and had booked my return the same night.

Dear Readers,
My experience went really well perhaps due to changes in the immigration procedures meant to make some applications process faster so that one can go on with life while waiting to gain finally permanent residence status?
I applied for a permanent residence through marriage to a US citizen while in F-1 status. Please note that I applied after our two year anniversary so the conditional permanent resident status would not apply. Here is the time line for my application process:
I am originally from Maryland and I met my husband when I was attending college in Houston, TX. After I completed college, I moved back up to Maryland to spend time with my family and I also got a very good opportunity to work, in Washington D.C. My husband and I decided to get Married in February 2002, and I decided to move back to Houston so we could start our lives together. By the time I could wrap things up in Maryland and finally move to Houston it was August 2002.

Interview date 20 th nov - 8:45 to 9:00 am
Dear Rajiv, Suman, Diane and Leila:
I wish to thank all of you for your excellent co-operation and help at all stages of our GC application.
On 7/20 we saw the online notice about the APPROVAL of our I-485 petition. We/you had filed an RFE on 7/16. Me and my family are very happy that the decision process was so quick, and all this would not have been possible without your valuable guidance.
At this stage I have two requests: 1) Most likely the approval notice will be received by your good office and we would like to have a copy of the same. Could you please email us upon receipt of the Approval, so we could forward you a fax number? 2) What is the next step after receipt of the I-485 Approval notice?
Once again many thanks to you and your excellent team for all the help all the way.
With best regards,
The KUPs.
Thanks all you wonderful people for the good job you are doing. Special thanks to Leila, Diane and Shivane for their help and support I got during my GC processing . You all have been great and thanks for being patient and quick in responding to my queries
I have worked with Rajiv Khanna for all my immigration matters so far. My H1B, 140, 485 etc were all processed by the lawyers working at this firm. Each & every member of this organization is very organized & meticulous with quick turnaround. Rajiv'ji provides direction in complicated situations and always takes care of the client. Now I am processing my 3nd H1B amendment with this group and hopefully I get my GC soon.
