Help, i've been working to get my employee visa since August last year, it already expired last Aug 1st... I have requested for it to be extended till Feb 10.. The problem is, it will be Feb 10 in 2 weeks and it's still not processed. I want to go home, what are my options.. Please help.. by the way, I'm currently in Pune.

No, don't contact the Embassy. You must go to your local FRRO and ask for an Exit Visa.

So? Someone else might be browsing the thread and looking for the right answer. If you're on an Employment visa in India and it expires and your extension hasn't been processed, you have to get and Exit visa from the FRRO. Won't be allowed to leave otherwise. It's not an Embassy matter.

FRRO is the answer to all foreigner's problems... and usually the cause of them! They would've sent that poor guy's visa extension off to Delhi for processing (because they're a regional office in Pune they can't do it themselves) and it would've gone into the black hole.
