if you do not mind asking How long does it usually take?
I have seen people get it in four weeks while others have waited up to six months.....as with anything in Cuba...it depends on your province and you job

Hey KJG, you should order your GCMS notes so that you know what information they want from you for the interview...

so you will need second form i posted and first form IF you are not listed as his representative. You will also need to photocopy the page of YOUR passport that has your pic and info on it. If you scan all of these and use a credit card for the $5 payment (only required if you are not already a representative) then you can upload all info on their website and do an email request. (I did snail mail which added an extra week to my wait time.) I sent mine in the mail from Saskatchewan on July 10th and received them by email on August 15th.

Good luck!

there is a company that you can order them from that costs $40.... I assume they would need the same info but they do allow you to track the progress, if this interests you...

their restricted and cannot receive a .pdf on the computer......and he will have to try and find a fax that is not in a hotel that will allow him to receive an international fax and then return it.....not so easy in Cuba.......one of the sucky things about him being in a communist country even the little things are not so little down there.... :(

but where there is a will there is a way!!!
