Hello dear forumees,
After taking the ielts twice and waited for 4 months for the FBI criminal report to come, finally I got re-invited to apply for permanent resident. Then, unfortunately, my passport got stolen in a car break-in. I lost my book bag and everything inside of it, passport included.
The obvious next step for me is to apply for a new passport, but the passport number will be different (Yeah, I am from China, Chinese embassy won't issue the new passport with the same passport number). After the new passport comes, I can finally submit the ITA application. Right now, I am in the 90 day period of preparing for ITA materials.
So now I am faced with a confusing situation. My IELTS test results and medical report were registered in the old passport number, while I can only submit my new passport for the final visa stamp. Would that be a problem at all? I don't have much faith in the authorities. If they still ask for my old passport, I won't be able to show it. I don't think I need to retake the IELTS test and the medical report, do I?
Maybe I am just panicking for nothing....am I? I wish I am.
Does anyone have the similar situation? I welcome any kind of sharing.
Thanks in advance,
Eddi
