Real intel agents would never tell you that they are agents.
I don't think we are talking secret spies here! Just a division which covers, among other things, immigration.

If they want to meet with you again, accept a meeting but tell them the meeting has to take place on "neutral" terrain wich in your case could be the local police station.
If genuine, these guys are police: if they want to come to the house, there is no choice. However, as a means of sounding out whether they are just a couple of guys looking for info on expats, it could be neat. Of course, if they are, they already have it, so that's that!

Could be...but I can't confirm it on Snopes!! Anyways, they haven't showed up at my house since that day, so they must've lost interest or felt I wasn't a threat.

Glad to hear it. Maybe they only told you they'd show up justto see what your reaction would be. Just a thought...

Of course, it could be down to simple Indian standards of "efficiency". Do ensure that your documents are safely kept and handed down from generation to generation... They will probably get round to visiting you in the year 3014
