Which accounts have you opened for investment? ROTH or traditional? Any benefit over having one or the other? And any preference on where should I open one?

I don’t have a 401k with D so I opened a traditional IRA so I can take the whole 6k deduction. Next year when I do have a 401k I will also open a Roth as it would be a great account to have in conjunction with 401k. Roth has income limitations so just check if you meet all the eligible criteria but for most people below 30 Roth IRA is better than traditional. (Again I went traditional specifically because of my situation)

Mine is with fidelity. It’s amazing :)

Can I get the visa stamped from some other consulate location in India such as Delhi, Hyderabad, etc. Or if I get an appointment in Canada or Mexico can I get the stamping done from there ?
