Cricketics Posted June 14, 2011 Posted June 14, 2011 That puzzles me as well.. 7-8 years are too long without coming back to India if you really keen on coming back. Whenever I am outside India I kinda make it a point to visit back to home in 6-8 months. Once my company tried to stop me, I told them in clear terms -that it is not on and then they let me come. For students I can understand, yet 7-8 years frigging long time..:omg: Everyone has their own problems. Mine was the issue of American Rashan Card. Until I get that in hand, can't/won't leave the country. It's just not on for me. Having waited for so long, it makes sense to wait some more. I am approved, just freakin processing is too slow.
EnterTheVoid Posted June 14, 2011 Author Posted June 14, 2011 They allowed me to go for a grand total of 2 weeks. Pfft, fyck that.

I mean gurgaon had started developing, but there was nothing like what I hear now the DLF and all that. First metro had started back than to Shahdara I guess..

EnterTheVoid Posted June 14, 2011 Author Posted June 14, 2011 I don't make enough money to go all that far for only a week or two. There, I said it

Cricketics Posted June 14, 2011 Posted June 14, 2011 Your comapny has posted you in Guantano Bay @ Marrirs, and only US citizen are allowed to be their other than employees working for the company. Hence, delay your visit - PARENTS.

Ram Posted June 14, 2011 Posted June 14, 2011 :WTF: i thought u waz good boy:(( :(( You don’t understand – its not an easy job shepherding your parents around in a foreign country. They’re completely and totally dependent on you. :dontknow: P.S; I haz a kid initially. :icflove: I had lots fun with my parents last time. Most of all, I get hot, steaming food every day, instead of experimenting with varying degrees of frozen foods, like I have to now. :((
Rajiv Posted June 14, 2011 Posted June 14, 2011 'tics, u still dont have GC? I thought u were Citizen already H1 to GC?
Cricketics Posted June 15, 2011 Posted June 15, 2011 'tics, u still dont have GC? I thought u were Citizen already H1 to GC? Long story short. I didn't apply GC through company. I came early in the country and had a dependent visa through my parents who were working. 80% of the process has been completed. I have been approved and Biometerics were done too few years ago. Just the GC needs to come when the processing date arrives.
EnterTheVoid Posted June 15, 2011 Author Posted June 15, 2011 LOL Tics, H1 visa, H2 visa, GC, bioinformatics ?? I came on a permanent residency, stayed for few years and than got citizenship. Minimimum fuss. I have to hand in my Indian passport and get that officially cancelled. Need to fork out another $200 to get an Indian entry visa which is valid fir 6 months from the time they process it.
Cricketics Posted June 15, 2011 Posted June 15, 2011 Man I hear you but it's not as simple as that here in States. I actually never went through H1 or anything. Didn't had to, since the first day I landed in U.S, I was on depenedent visa.
