221g issued
Hi

I was issued 221g at kolkata consulate on 25th Sep.

Submitted the docs in Hyd OFC on 9th Oct.

Earlier [email protected] used to display "Intransit to Post".

All of a sudden, it is saying "Please use valid passport number or uid".

When checked with ustraveldocs, they are saying it is still "Intransit to Post".

Not sure, why Team stanley is taking such a long time to send docs to consulate.

Please let me know, if any one else are in same situation.

Thank you,
Rakesh

First of all,Thanks to all of you for such valuable comments it helped us a lot


Our H1 and H4 got approved on 11th oct 2012 in chennai
The VO was very kind he just asked three to four questions
1. Who is your employer?
2.who is your client?
3.what is your role and salary?
4.What is your project?

He asked just a question to my wife as how long we have been married?

Regarding the passport,if you have requested for pickup option ,dont wait for a mail or sms from VFS
just go to the pickup location after two working days,as they don't update the status soon.


Thanks and ALL THE BEST.
