Hi, this topic is related to an earlier thread posted by me.

I am confused! :(

My friend has been asked to submit her passport for visa issuance. She is currently living in China, as she had to go back during the time of her application's processing. Everything has gone well this far, and now for this final step another hitch has been experienced.

The directions on the links provided are quite clear on where to mail the passport (either the Buffalo office or the Fort Erie office depending on whether the return address is in the U.S. or Canada. As I mentioned, she is in China!

They also state that they do not return a passport to places outside the U.S. or Canada. This is difficult! (I may act as a go between, but what does one do in her situation if they don't have anyone to do this for them?)

The Buffalo office has been handling her application and all correspondence has been with them.

We have sent 2 emails asking for direction and there has been no response in a week. We need help! Surely others have been in this same situation where they are asked to submit their passport, but it is from a country other than the two they will return it to?

Please help!

Thanks...

1. Really only one solution, she uses your address in Canada for the passport's return, and then you courier it to her.
