Visa Wait time in Mumbai for Regional Language

[dipali_goda]

I have tried making appointment at mumbai consuate since September for my parents for visitor Visa in Gujarati/hindi/marathi language. In talking to the VFS helpline it seems like the appointment slots are not available. Is there any other way to find out when the appointments will be available?

Keep trying. No other way.

We tried calling VFS call center to know details on this. Got reply from them that they open slots once they have enough resource. But did not give infomation when they open slot and is there any way to know it in advance.

Is there anyone here who got appointment for any regional lang at Mumbai recently?

I contacted VFS Mumbai for this. They said take appointment in English and at the time of interview ask for Translator.

I think they have some problem in the site / software

All the best

When I asked VFS, they told me to keep trying for a regional language visa interview appointment. There was no suggestion of taking visa appointment in English and then ask them for a regional language translator just before the interview. Has anyone else heard about making a translator request just before the interview?

Keep trying.....that's what I did and got date for my in-laws for Gujarati language. Today only I got 9th Jan.
Make your application ready because date changes every minute.
All the very best.

Thanks all for your reply. We daily check twice in vfs for appointments. We check aroun 7am IST and 9pm IST.

Looks like this is the only way to get appointment.

I made appointment today for my sister on Jan 8. Though I had to select English for interview language. Regional languages does not work. there is a flaw in VFS web portal ( A typical Indian website ).
