(1) Form I-134. Affidavit of Support (this form is printed by U.S. Department of Justice. Immigration and Naturalization Service) The Form-134 must be filled completely and Notarized. (2) Bank Balance statement (copy) (3) A letter of verification of employment. (copy) (4) A valid visa. (H-1 if working etc) (copy) You only need to send copies of items 2, 3 and 4. They are not a must, but they will prove that you have sufficient funds to take care of the visitors during their visit, which in turn will make getting the visa a little easier. ** Note ** The INS office in San Francisco informed me that I need to send Form I-134 and a personal letter of invitation to my parents. They then have to take it to the American Embassy. To get the form I-134 call your local INS office. For information of Federal Government Services. eg. phone number of American Consulate in gondwanaland. Call 1 (800) 726-4995 VISA BY MAIL!!! If the visitors are over 50 years of age they can MAIL all these things along with their passports to the nearest US consulate, else they will have to go in person. ************************************************************************ ************************************************************************ ------- Subject: 10) VISITOR MEDICAL INSURANCE The Companies who provide such insurance are listed below.

Travellers will now enjoy enhanced duty-free allowance worth Rs 3,000 and Rs 150,000 in case of transfer of residence. The duty-free allowance for Indians travelling abroad for more than three days has been raised from Rs 2,400 to 3,000. The TR rules have been made more flexible by condoning a shortfall of the required stay of up to 1 year in special cases. A Collector of Customs can sanction this shortfall up to 2 months. 13 consumer durables like VCRs, color TV and airconditioners worth Rs 150,000 would now be allowed under the TR rules and Rs 30,000 under mini-transfer rules. This will apply even if the items are purchased at the transit points while returning to India. OTHER CHANGES IN CUSTOMS REGULATIONS Import duties for allopathic drugs are reduced from 110% to 80%, and for homeopathic drugs from 65% to 40%. Self-assessment of goods would be permitted for established importers as well as government undertakings where there are no disputes about classification. This could be described as a "green channel" as the goods would usually be cleared without scrutiny, though there would be occasional spot checks. Chemical testing, where necessary, will now be done at various laboratories in the private and public sector as well as the existing customs laboratories. CARRYING GOLD TO INDIA Gold including ornaments, except those studded with stones or pearls, will be allowed to be imported as a part of baggage by passengers of Indian origin subject to certain conditions. The quantity of gold imported will not exceed 5 kg per passenger and he should have stayed abroad for a period of atleast six months. The import duty is, to be paid in convertible foreign currency, Rs. 220.00 for 10 grams of gold in any form (ornaments or coins). CALL YOUR NEAREST CONSULATE AND THEY WILL GLADLY MAIL YOU ACCURATE AND UP TO DATE INFORMATION . ************************************************************************ ************************************************************************ ------- Subject: 12) Tourist Information The goverment of India, Department of Tourism has offices in many countries to provide tourist information to people who wish to take their vacation in India. They are called India Tourist Office. I found the address of some and I am sure there must be others in USA. If somebody knows let me know.

They are some great plans that you probably never knew existed. Most of them are however for NRI or Foreign Citizens and require payment in Dollars. INDRAIL PASS The Indrail Pass gives unlimited rail travel within India in the specified time period. It is available to non-Indian citizens as well as Indians residing outside India. It can be purchased through the General Sales Agents (details below), though any competent travel agent should be able to fix you up. It can also be bought from major stations in India. Main plus points include eliminating the need to buy tickets for every trip, though reservations are necessary. There are special reservation quotas on some trains for Indrail holders. It is available in 3 categories: AC, First Class, Second Class. It is not advisable to take the AC pass since not many trains have AC First Class. The First Class pass also covers AC Sleeper and AC Chair Car. GSA details: Hariworld Travel, New York. 212-957-3000 Also in Toronto, 416-366-2000 Fares: AC First Second 1 day 65 29 12 (all in USD) 15 270 135 65 30 410 205 90 90 800 400 175 (Also available for 7,21,60 days. Kids below 12 pay half) There are also odd rules like a foreigner can buy a pass for his/her spouse. Another plus point is that you can make reservations upto 360 days in advance, i.e. even through your travel agent in the US-though you would have to have the pass in hand before making reservations. Much useful information about the Pass regulations(in fact, about the Indian Railways as a whole) can be found in "India by Rail", by Roylston Ellis, published by Bradt Publishers. Some information is also available in "Eurail Guide" and "Thomas Cook's Overseas Timetable" ************************************************************************ ************************************************************************ ------- Subject: 13) Pal to Secam Conversion The following businesses do Pal to Secam conversions.
