Post by siva81 » Thu Feb 21, 2008 1:13 pm

Hi All,

Applied for ec on 07 Feb 2008 / Chn.
Integra : due
Results : waiting.

I donot have chance to verify whether my integra check is over is not , I work for big MNC. I have given my team lead mail id . but not got call / mail in this.

I sent a mail to BDHC , chennai for my status , got response on 20 Feb stating that waiting for Integra results and will take maximum 20 working days for the process.

Donno whats happenning .. feel bit tense.. can some let me know that who applied ec on or after 07 feb got Integra calls. If you are not aware means whats the way to know the status.

Thanks,
Siva81

EC Update Status?

Post by devfore11 » Thu Feb 21, 2008 3:40 pm

Hi,

I can dig into other forums and get to know the exact email id but I too lazy for that. :D

Mailed VFS Delhi, but got a very straight reply:"YOUR APPLICATION IS IN PROCESS". How on earth can I decipher whether it has passed Integra etc.. Can we mail BHC (DElhi) Straight? If so, can I have its mail id?

Regards,
Dev.

Mistake in EC application for spouse

Post by ecforspouse » Sat Feb 23, 2008 3:33 am

Hi,
I applied for EC yesterday for myself and family. In the VAF2 form answer to question no 6.3.1(Are you related to the sponsor?), we put the marriage date as 3-Jun-2002 instead of 4-Jun-2002 by mistake. The date in the original marriage certificate is 4-Jun-2002. How can can i correct this mistake or inform the HC before they consider our applications? Your valuable suggestions are welcome.

Regards

integra checks

Post by maverick18 » Mon Feb 25, 2008 6:33 am

Has BDHC received the integra report for any of the applicants applied after 6 Feb.
My employer got a call from integra on 14 Feb and he replied the same day.
Today I got a mail from BDHC mentioning that they are still waiting for Integra reports.

You can call them at 044-42192308/10 between 8:30 to 11:30 in the morning.
You need to mention your passport number to know your status

Called them up today morning. The lady said " No decision has yet been taken, Please call after 4 weeks, it takes time" When I asked, if she meant 4 weeks from date of application, from today, she said 4 weeks from today. That is like 7 weeks from the date of application. She confirmed they had received my Integra report.

Hi, hsmp_india_2008,
In your case there is no need to show too much funds as u already have a confirmed job offer. If your employment contract mentiones that accomodation will be provide by the company that should be enough proof. Otherwise get details from the company regarding their guest house or hotel bookings they are making on ur behalf.
Immigration law is mystery and a mastery in obfuscation, and the lawyers who can figure that out are worth their weight in gold.

What does the following message mean...

" Your application is forwarded to AC 26 Feb 2008 "

Does it mean the decision is made and the passport is sent to Aplication Centre.

Note: I have not asked for the courier to send me back the documents but will be collecting from the VFS

Thanks in Advance
