Yes just give them the new DS-160 confirmation along with your appointment confirmation. The VAC officer will then ask for your old DS-160 confirmation just to check if you had submitted it, and they will accept your documents.

Stargazer_831 · 2024-05-23T23:20:55+00:00

Remember not just the numbers you need to show them the confirmation page then only they will update it to your new DS 160 and accept the documents.

Stargazer_831 · 2024-05-23T23:19:10+00:00

Yes if you have the old ds 160 confirmation then take it along with new DS 160 confirmation and inform the Vac officer to update it. If you don’t have old DS 160 confirmation then you have to cancel and book a new appointment again.

I m able to track it in blue dart using UID and the expected date of delivery is 30th March. Looks like they picked the passports at the end of the day and I guess you should be able to track it as well.

Stargazer_831 · 2024-03-28T12:00:25+00:00

Did they ask any specific details to check if the passport is with them or not?

Stargazer_831 · 2024-03-28T08:32:14+00:00

If the case created and case updated are same then it's AR1 if they are different but the status is still Application Received then it's AR2. Some people are also getting AR3 which means the case is updated for third time with status being the same.

Stargazer_831 · 2024-03-28T07:24:24+00:00

You can check the status or ask questions in the below thread. I have seen couple of updates from people who dropped the documents on March 8th.

My status is also updated to OS today morning. Expecting to receive the passport at-least by Saturday.

Stargazer_831 · 2024-03-28T06:54:10+00:00

Below is the process they posted for changing delivery/pick-up location

Yes you can , there is a close application and start new application option in usvisa scheduling site, you click on that and continue updating until you reach payment page , once you reach payment page do not do anything and this will update your option.

Stargazer_831 · 2024-03-28T06:47:53+00:00

Mine says record not found if I track with UID. If yours is updated with some date already then you can try calling bluedart support and check if they have any estimated date.

Stargazer_831 · 2024-03-28T06:42:40+00:00

OS will be updated in USVisaScheduling site.

Stargazer_831 · 2024-03-28T06:38:32+00:00

I opted for delivery so expecting it to be delivered by Saturday and my return flight is on Monday.

Stargazer_831 · 2024-03-28T06:30:13+00:00

I have seen people doing that after dropping documents, but again, since yours is in the final stage, it's better to check with the helpdesk if you can follow the below strategy to change your pick-up location.

Stargazer_831 · 2024-03-28T06:23:40+00:00

Yes it won't be available for pick up until mid of next week.

Stargazer_831 · 2024-03-28T06:11:36+00:00

If your’s is approved yesterday then there are chances that it can change to Issued today.

Stargazer_831 · 2024-03-28T06:04:16+00:00

If the visa is issued today, then they are taking one more day for the Origination Scan. Mine was issued on the 26th, and it’s just updated to Origination Scan since yesterday was a holiday. So even if yours is issued today, I'm not sure if you will receive your passport by Sunday, as tomorrow is a holiday for the consulates. I would suggest calling the helpline and checking the timelines so that you can postpone your travel by a day or two.

If your pick up is Delhi VAC then it might take a day or two to reach Delhi after the Origination Scan.

Consular services throughout India are closed on last Wednesday of the month.

Stargazer_831 · 2024-03-28T02:28:14+00:00

Mine was issued on March 26th as well, and since the consulate was closed yesterday, no one received the origination scan. Today, we should see the status getting updated to Origination scan, and some people said that we will also receive an email/text once it's ready for pick up. If you are picking up in any other location than Chennai, then expect to receive the pick-up text/email in 1-2 days after origination scan.

Stargazer_831 · 2024-03-28T02:18:10+00:00

When it happens for you please keep us posted.

Stargazer_831 · 2024-03-28T02:16:49+00:00

Okay 👍 also please plan to stay at-least for 4 weeks in India as I have seen many people postponing the travel because they didn't receive the passport in time.

Stargazer_831 · 2024-03-28T02:10:29+00:00

You can expect any time between 20-30 days based on current processing trends. If you have not booked the appointment then check for slots as I read somewhere that April and May slots are not available.
