I am going to apply for EC (again) this week. Hopefully it shud go well this time.

My consultant said that my funds are low (2 Lakhs in bank account) and she feels thats might cause problem and guiding to show my parents financials as well.

Just now realising that the surname of mine and my fathers name is different (by a letter) and if I am gonna show the sponsor letter then for sure it gonna create prob.

My dads name is different in all the docs concerning him and in all my docs its different.

Friends say that an affidavit and a letter in a stamp paper (notarized) is enough.

Any worthful guidance ?

Arun

I showed the amount slightly greater than 2L (2.25) but also had other financial instruments worth some 2.75. Just FYI

where has this person siva posted this ? can you link the thread here ?

vidya · Post by **vidya** » Tue Feb 05, 2008 5:59 am

okay , saw siva's post in the january thread - he has applied 3 working days after me at Bangalore

Jason , surely they are processing more than one per week then

so now they are emailing the result rather than updating online

praying real hard to get the result fast ...this waiting is agony

Hi Vidya,

could you provide me the conct no of the BHC.

MadhuSri · Post by **MadhuSri** » Tue Feb 05, 2008 6:12 am

Hi,

Called up BHC today and the lady said they are waiting for my integra report. I have worked for 4.5 years in one of the top MNCs and moved to another good MNC a month back. I mentioned generic Phone numbers in the integra form. I did mention specific numbers in the covering letter. Now, am worried if they are unable to get the exact contacts. What should I do now? Is ther a way where I can send the exact contacts if needed?Any advice would be of great help.

Thanks in advance!

I dont think you need to worry...Integra guys are pretty well informed...and they have all means to reach the right person...

vidya · Post by **vidya** » Tue Feb 05, 2008 6:29 am

Inchowdry , I have never called them so i got this number from BHC website 044 42192308/09/10.

others please correct if these numbers are outdated and which one is better to get through faster .....

madhusri , the integra report is not only based on employment verification but also verifying the educational certificates at your university so perhaps the delay is there

hi all,

my husband's office has been urging him to submit his ppt for past 3 weeks now for short term trip of 4 weeks to germany

we are planning to email chennai BHC mentioning that his passport was submitted for spouse visa and he has urgent travel requirements now and can they expedite the processing

we are planning to attach the invite letter from the group company in germany

CAN YOU GUYS THINK OF ANY REASON WHY THIS MAY JEOPARDISE OUR HSMP VISA APPLICATION

Vidya,

This wont in any case have a negative effect on your application. At best, they will process the application faster...and worst...they wont process it faster...but this can never be a reason to refuse...so chill out and go ahead...But, I guess you call them up once and see if you can get any update on your application...as I think you are close on getting it...

Inchowdry , congrats

- can you tell me what time you sent the email yday and to what id ....i have been mailing them since friday but no replies.......

Mantya · Post by **Mantya** » Tue Feb 05, 2008 6:52 am

it seems that these guys have jumped on to processing appliations from Jan 1st week and might have skipped the 4th week applications....
It is very irritating to wait for this long and that too when u don't know what the outcome will be, so double the worries...
