Anyone here returned to India with a non-Indian spouse?

From what I can tell (and I hope I'm right!), wifey will adjust well to life in Coonoor, but will need the occasional trip to Singapore/KL to satisfy her gustatory cravings for sushi and assorted creepy-crawlies. I suspect this will be our major expense. Otherwise, she'll be quite happy peddling her ...

Anyone here returned to India with a non-Indian spouse?

You're correct OWG. Ultimately, it depends on the temperament of the returnees. Those R2I-ing with high-maintenance expectations and short fuses will naturally find themselves frequently disappointed. A relaxed outlook (and good financial cushioning!) should be amongst the top qualifications for any ...

Anyone here returned to India with a non-Indian spouse?

This isn't much of a problem in Ooty or Coonoor. Plenty of non-Tamilians (and even several non-Indians) settled there. A different story altogether if you go into the interior of TN. Around Madurai, for example, you may be taken for a North Indian (or even a foreigner) if you're an un-mustachioed ...

Anyone here returned to India with a non-Indian spouse?

OK thanks Spartan. The bottomline seems to be that non-Indians married to Indians (or ex-Indians, as in USC+OCIs) are eligible for PIO status, but not OCI.

When will CBE airport (CJB) go international?

Thanks for the info, DPPH. I didn't realize it's already international.

Has anyone ever flown into CJB from the US without stopping at another Indian airport? (For example, US-Dubai-CJB). Without knowing what the prices are, this looks very convenient for those of us served by CJB.

When will CBE airport (CJB) go international?

Hello CBE-ites,

On my last trip home I noticed that CJB has a brand new terminal with signs for Immigration and Customs, suggestive of impending promotion to International status. Any idea when this will happen, and what foreign destinations will be served?

Anyone here returned to India with a non-Indian spouse?

I just done some research on this, and it looks like non-Indians are not allowed to become OCIs my marriage, unless they're eligible in their own right (i.e, as persons who of Indian origin).
