MIL got Visitor Visa today - Mar 16th 2006 - Chennai Consulate
Hi All,
My MIL has got visitor visa today (March 16th) at Chennai Consulate. We do not know the duration of visa yet. She took tamil appointment and she had interview at 9:15 AM. But she went inside the consulate around 8:30 AM and came back around 2 PM. There were lots of people it seems.
Here is some background abt our case - My MIL is a widow and my husband is the only son and she has 2 daughters who stays in India. We prepared all the documents according to the website. Thanks to everyone.
Questions asked to her -
1) Why is your husband not accompanying you?
He is no more.
2) Do you have a son?
Yes
3) Do you have any other kids?
Yes, 2 daughters
4) Where are they?
Chennai
5) Where are you staying?
Chennai
6) With whom are you staying?
She said that her mom lives with her.
7) When you are away, will your daughters come and stay with your mom?
She said that my daughters cannot come so I will leave my mom with my daughters.
8) What is your income?
Rs.XX,ZZZ
9) How do you get that income?
She said it is from pension and rental income.
10) Who bought all those rental properties? (May be they want to check whether it was all my husband's properties)
She said that her husband was an engineer and he bought all those properties.
11) Who sponsors your visa?
She said that her son is the sponsor.
In between, the lady asked for the documents and she had gone through each and every document in both the files. We had prepared 2 files for Visitor docs and Sponsor docs and we pasted post-its with names on it.
And finally they said that she got the visa and she can pay the fees.
Thanks to everyone. This site is really very useful and helpful. I was very tensed as my MIL is single. And one good thing is, we are not in any urgency, so we asked her to stay cool and mentioned to her that she can apply any number of times if she is not getting now. I think the documents and her confidence really helped in this case.
Good luck to all.
I will let you all know the duration once she gets the passport.
Regards,
Swetha
