Hello Everyone,
Quick Question :- After paying the courier service fees for my parents, VFS replied back with 2 AWB numbers (123456789/987654321) but they haven't explicitly mentioned which AWB is linked to which applicant.

Since we are expected to make two envelopes, how are we supposed to conclude the right AWB for the right applicant?

We are expecting a pick up today, any help is highly appreciated.

I send all details to vfs but i dont recieve payment link what can Ido?

@Ashish2589 Were there any problems when you sent both of your passports ( old cancelled one ) and the re issued ( renewed one with the old passport number ) . Do let me know, did you put them intact one against the another in the envelope ?

There was no problem I just put both the passports in one envelope and hand it over to bluedart, One thing you need to keep in mind you need to send only both passport in that case where you have put the details of your old passport when you have submitted your application. if you have used your new passport while applying for the application then old passport is not required.

Hope it helps.

Thanks

Continuously sending email reminders and posts on Twitter is the key! All the best everyone.

What is the time to call PassportSubmission help desk @ 022 68539025 ?

It has been 15 days, I sent all details but no payment link received, they asked me to confirm if I chose premium lounge service, I replied that I did not choose that one and requested to send me the payment link, but no response received.

Ohkies, So I hope I will get some email by tomorrow.

Thanks

When did you get the email with tracking id from VFS after your passport delivered to them? My passport delivered to them on 30th December but no email yet from VFS.

Thank you for your reply, yes first I thought it is due to Holidays but I think they have stopped it.

I am worried about 30 days time limit in which we need to submit passport.

Because VFS currently working with limited capacity so there is no timeline applicable to submit your passport, don't worry about that.
