I got 221 g pink slip and note says PIMS association needs to verify. Anyone who have gone through the same boat can share the experience. I work in my field of education and i work directly to the company. I am kind a surprise.

PIM verification simply mean that in their system your approval hasn't shown up. you know how computer glitches happens. Just wait few days, they should be informing you. (hopefully).

@kanchababu my Interview was on 27th oct and today is Nov 2 it is 5 business days!!! you mean i don't need to panic correct? Btw my return ticket is Nov 14.

whatajoke · Nov 2, 2015 9:45 AM

It is not the situation to panic, but you definitely want to follow up with them . This process to verify may take weeks..

kanchababu · Nov 2, 2015 9:51 AM

@kanchababu thanks for your quick response!!! But you mention to follow up what should i do? if i call the customer service they will also check online status as i can check myself online using case number right? or there is some different way to follow up?

whatajoke · Nov 2, 2015 10:00 AM

As per the information I have, its they only to let u know once the verification is complete(normally 2-3 days but in worst 2-3 weeks) . but since you mentioned you're return flight is on Nov 14, around Nov 6-7, i would suggest you to follow up in the embassy email on the progress ..

kanchababu · Nov 2, 2015 10:02 AM

@kanchababu i'll do so anyway thanks for helping to reduce stress!!!
