Hi Guys,

Mashallah my wife just received an email from London office and her file and they asked her to submit her passport with 2 pictures to Islamabad. She is residing in Karachi.

The email says "There is now a new procedure for submitting your passport(s). We require all passports to be submitted via the VFS Visa Application Centre (VAC) in Pakistan. This ensures a faster and safer process in the return of all passports."

I went on the VFS global website website and found out the Islamabad VISA APPLICATION CENTER address. My question are:

1. how should I submit all the documents to Islamabad? Should I use some TCS, LEOPARD courier service? Or should I go to Karachi VAC center and submit all the documents to Islamabad?
2. Secondly, do I have to pay any fees and include the receipts prior to sending out the documents to Islamabad?
3. How long would it take for VAC center in islamabad to send her passport back?
4. If she uses a courier service such as TCS or leopard, will their tracking number work on the VAC website to track passport?

A detailed step by step procedure to submit passport will be appreciated as I cannot determine which will be the proper way to send her passport and whether she has to pay any fee as well. Your help will be appreciated. THANKS!
