    Hi! I actually brought that from the Philippines. I realize now that it's hard to find this here, my brother just sent in his application and he was looking for that in Staples too but couldn't find it.

    Hi guys, what we did was put the sponsor name and UCI number and spouse name on the separate envelopes. and put "Envelope 1 of 3, 2 of 3 , 3 of 3" so that they know there are 3 in all in case they get separated.

    depending on your VO, you get them back! So now you can make a scrapbook out of them ;D I had all our photos scanned and formatted on MS Publisher, typed in the captions and printed them on A4...

    if your case is simple and straightforward too then you should be fine.

    my proof were in A4 too, and I used legal sized envelope. I don't think we have A4 envelopes in the Philippines, or at least in the shop where I bought my supplies. Lol. This is no problem as long as your papers are all safe and secure. some people even send in a box.
