Letter asking to sent orignal passport to Buffalo
Hi,
I sent in my medicals in Sept 2002. Today, I received a letter from Buffalo consulate asking me to send in my orignal passport so that they can send in my final immigranat visa. They have said that i send in teh passport in the next 30 days.
1. Why is the orignal passport required? Is it required so that they can stamp the immigrant visa and send it back to us?
2. I am planning to travel to India in Dec, how long does it take to get my passport back?
3. Can we postpone sending the orignal passport to CIC and send them the passport after we return from India?
Thanks
