Go paperless??

These days, every service provider every bank offers us the option of going paperless. No paper at all. All the transactions will be emailed to you.

If you have signed up for paperless billing/statements, be sure to save those emails. No...nothing against the banks. You might have to put them to use in many important occassions in your life. Recently, my friend's family was looking for an alliance. Here's what the girl's parents wanted to know (not one bit exaggerated)

1. Annual Salary + Variable component
2. Office address in the U.S
3. Work phone number
4. Brother(who is in the U.S) of the girl will call and talk to him on the work phone.

Many more... only these are on top of my mind!

Going by the scheme of things, this would form a great base as a new business model. Do all these activities and have pre-cleared grooms :P

If the current trend persists, probably people getting married in another 3 years or so will have to do the following

1. Submit address proof for stay in your current U.S address. (If your stay is less than 3 months in the current address, then include an address proof for the previous address along with the reason why you moved)
2. Recent 6 Months bank statement. (Salary account(
3. Photo identification proof.
4. Letter from your employer attesting the fact that you are employed with that company
5. Three people's reference in your locality along with their numbers.

If you submit the above documents, your application would be processed within 2 months from the date of submission and your eligibility to compete will be determined.

If eligible, your photograph will be taken up for discussion with the girl!!!!
