hi jaisurana I went with Visa letter last year for the visa. i wil advise you to postpone your appointment till u get the visa letter. As one should not leave any stone unturn in this process. So better get ur visa interview rescheduled.

hi jai.. have you checked your ecfmg profile, i think there is an option called reprint our documents, i think u can find it there... have you checked that... and one more thing, u will be going to visa after 3rd week of june after u get your visa letter and your cs is on 2nd july....dont you think time is a little short in between... after you get your visa a minimum of 1week to 10 days is required for you before you fly of for US... have a look and plan accordingly... and see that you exam date falls in between the period of stay in US you mention in your ds forms... be very sure of these questions. 1. when u want to land in US? 2. how long yo intend to stay? 3. when is your cs date? be very sure and plan accordingly... all the best !!!

Hi Jaisurana These are my personal views and with which I cleared that interview in first place and got 10 years Multiple entry last year. My Visa Counsellor told to me that never ever you should mention about your relatives in US if they are not sponsoring you. Just tell the name of the hotel at the interview. But at the Port of entry in US fill in the address where you will be staying(i.e. your uncle's address etc.) Second Q answer is "NO" I hope it helps you out.
