  • Back from Delhi CP interview

    Hi guys,

    I am just back from the delhi consulate after the CP interview. Here's what happened :

    Submitted all the required papers at 11:00 am. My wife was the primary applicant and she did not have the birth certificate. We had affidavits. Surprisingly, the lady at the counter did not take the affidavits. I double checked with her. She cancelled both our H1's right away and told us to collect our passports at 3:30 pm.

    At 4:00 pm, they called our name at counter 6 (not a good sign). Others were being called at counter 8 to collect their things. The guys told us they we need to come back after 2 weeks. He said, they are waiting for clearance from Washington. They paper he gave says 'NCIC result awaited'. He said they need to verify that my wife does not have any criminal background. He told us not to worry and it’s a routine check and we will get the visa, its just a matter of time. I really hope so.

    Does anybody has any experience with this type of thing ? Right now, we are just sitting with our H1's cancelled and without the immigrant visa, I tell you it feels scary. I will be calling the consulate every other day starting Monday to see if it has cleared.

    Thanks

    Sorry to hear about your situation. It seems consulate have recently started this name check more religiously. Even in London they are not sending interview invitation before name check. Couple of people I know are waiting for name check in different country consulate.
    I am surprised how come they have even send you interview letter without having name check done.

        Delhi CP

        IT is not your fault that Name Check is not completed
        before your CP Interview.

        Why did they cancel your H1? That is a scary Part. But What I have heard is if your documents are not ready then they as you to come back with proper Documents.

          Name Check

          There are 2 aspects to this situation. If you see on the bad side, you are unlucky to have stuck with this issue.

          But if you see on the good part, you should consider yourself lucky, because, since your documents are with them and they have cancelled your H-1b visa,they will be forced to deal with your case quickly. As they say, you will get your GC in 2 weeks,if all's well.

          I have read lot of posting from people whose papers have reached the consulate and then they are not assigned Interview dates because of Name Check verification. Some of them have been waiting for as much as 3 -4 months for this. Thank god , you did not get stuck up there.

          Best of luck.

            What is name check?

            I have sent my packet III on Oct 5, 2000. When my father called ND embassy on Oct 18, 2000 and gave my
            case number they had the case and confirmed my name. They told my father that they have not received packet III yet.

            If they have my case and name does that mean name check is done or this is an additional step ?
