hey everyone.......i was just wondering here in jamaica.....when the embassy call or passport request if it is the same immigration officer finish everything and send out the passport to where it have to go or they have another department that do that kind of work.....i think if they have another department for that then getting back your passport should not take that long to get back ......i was just wondering if that is how it is or not.....
Hey Maddants I believe it is the same person.....when my husbands friend came up in May when they called him to bring the pp in she had said 2 him that she wants 2 finish up his file by the end of the month.......so I believe its the same person......but I could b wrong

Oh I dont like the sounds of that...my Husband was so excited he didn't even take time to get the woman's name that is working on his file?

She told him to courier what needs to be couriered and the DHL office will know where it has to go, but was concerns me is after it is signed for , how will the person who signed for it, know who to give it to?

He did ask for her contact number, but as we all know there really isnt a direct contact # that the v/o can give out?

"There is a drop-off window at the West Kings House Road entrance. Make sure your envelope is clearly labeled with your name, DOB and the file number if you have it. It will be a simple matter of a few minutes for the person behind the window to take it from you (the window is heavily blacked out so you will not be able to see them, but you will hear them talking to you)." - Charlie

Hmmm, so what's the consensus then? Do you have to go inside, take a number and wait? Or do you just go in and drop it at the front desk? Anyone who has recently dropped off passport, please share your experience :)
