can someone tell me the list of things that one should receive along with their visa stamping in their passport and landing document?

visa on the passport (IM-1 immigrant type)
form IMM 5292

then what else should be there?

i am checking to make sure that i received all the documents needed. can someone please let me know this, thanks.
 
thanks mercury6, yeah i do have a do's and dont's letter as well. is there anything else? also, what does IM-1 stand for? is there a IM-2, IM-3, etc.? just curious to know if there are any restrictions with IM-1, specifically.

also, the visa stamping doesnt carry my photo. the landing document does have my photo affixed on it. is this enough or should i contact buffalo regarding my photo missing in the visa? please let me know, thanks.

I am not sure What 1 stands for in IM-1 stands for, But it is a single entry immigrant visa. Visa stamping wont have photo and yes the landing doc will have it. When you land you present the passport with visa and the landing doc.
 
Question on Landing Papers

A friend of mine applied here in the US and goes back to India, is it ok for him to land from India since he can get the landing papers from his brother in the US or he has to go back to US and land from there?

Vjy -

thanks very much for your comments. i remember seeing such a message posted saying that there is a need for an income tax clearance certificate for those coming out of india. not able to find the thread now though. but in any case, if its not too much of a hassle, i would just go ahead and get it, i guess. thanks again.....
