    Refund of $155 PP - Forced Renunciation Fees during the Month of May 2010

    Crazy but funny ... they have all the power to legally rob us and we can't really do much about it? My case was Ack'ed on June 1st, and MO was en-cashed on June 4th, let me see what excuse they would provide for this scenario. Action only after I get OCI in hand though.

    Dude, you did what they asked you to do. Now if they did not process all the applications together its still your fault, yes I should've said its their fault but unfortunately you can't win here. I would say just send kids passports without mentioning anything about postage fees or your cases...

    VM, my friend, this is absolutely ridiculous of them to send the application back again ... as far as getting the 2 sets notarized, Yes, we all have done it. They want 2 ORIGINAL Sets not the photocopy of 1st set ... Very bad, but like I told GC2USC before, I think this time you would end up...
