Hi friends,
I am trying to apply for pio for my 4 month old daughter. She has her US passport. I need to travel to India at the earliest as my father is facing some health issues. I am residing in NY and tried to book a walkin appoinment thinking that I will be able to get the PIO soon. But I booked the appoinment today 19th feb 2014 and got the nearest appoinment date as 13th march 2014. And I have read that it may take up to 4 weeks to get the pio card in hand. Totally confused !!
Now I am trying to get answer for two questions:
1.Is there any other way to book a walkin appoinment within few days ?
2.Or is it better to get a tourist visa for my daughter now ? If yes I fear will my daughter have to face some issues during the journey and her stay in India.
Please share your experiences.
Regards
