Hi Baapji,

I need some immediate assistance on sending passport for stamping:

1) With the letter there is a grey envelope, they asked to send passport & photographs in this envelope. Do I need to send the letter as well in the grey envelope??? This is confusing because the letter says exactly the following ways:

• Return original passport(s) with this letter in the grey envelope.
• Do not include any documents other than your passports and photographs in this envelope.

2) Exactly how you did fedex the passport?? Did you send them a stamped, self-addressed envelope to return the passports?

3) Are the required photographs immigration photographs or passport photographs??

Thanks,

Shamim
 
Hi Baapji,

I filed my application as the same time as you(06/2001). I'm confused why the package of my landing paper I received is different from yours.

After medical examination, I received an approved pachage on 04/2002. It just includes Landing paper, Imm 5455 form, instruction for new immigrants, and a letter.

The letter said:
" Enclosed pls find an "Immi. Visa and Record of Landing". Pls carefully review your visa to ensure that all info. is correct. If you find any errors in the name, .......

You must personally present your visa with a valid passport at POE before the expiration date shown in box 33. ...... "

I was not required to submit my passport to stamp for visa. So I wonder that if it is the same paper for the immi. visa and landing paper.

Anybody can give me useful infomation?

Thanks
