So the embassy requested my passport and i have sent it by royal mail ( later i found out that i should've sent it by DX secure)

i called the Dx secure asking how im gonna receive my passport back when they issue me the visa and i've got 2 different answers. the first one is when my passport is ready the embassy will give it to the DX and then they will contact me and tell me that they have got my passport and they will ask me to pay the delivery fee on the phone...

the second answer was they are not sure if the embassy will accept the passport by royal mail, and they might send it back to me and then i will have to send it again via DX secure....

when i check the postoffice website it says delivered but i called DOS today and they said it doesn't show that they received your passport!

I'm totally stressed and confused

1- what shall i do ?? i know i have to wait and see but it's easier said than done

2- do you think they will disregard my passport since i haven't sent it by DX secure ?

3- how long should i wait before i start to worry ?

4- did it happen with anyone before or have you heard of any similar situation?

5- do you think i should write the embassy and ask if they received my passport as the phone call i made today wasn't helpful

and one more thing, i have sent my passport to this address :

Immigrant Visa Unit

5 Upper Grosvenor Street

London W1A 2JB

6- is it the correct address?

somebody answers me please :(

Thank you EAbbas i hope you hear some good news soon inchAllah

First off, i hope and pray that all of us will get out of this stressful AP as soon as possible.

i just want to ask if every single case requires Washington DC name checks or do they only send it there in case there was a name hit ??

Did anyone send their passport by royal mail ?? i just went to the post office and sent it as special delivery, i know i should've sent it through DX secure but is it going to be a problem?

@ Widsy97 i have no idea they told me all the documents and papers were ok on the interview day and that my case needs AP though

@ Loveeth can you please tell me how long was it for her to get her visa issued after she is been asked to send in passport?

Hi, i had my interview for k1 visa at London embassy last October and i have been under AP since then, yesterday i called DOS and the lady told me that i should send my passport to the embassy, and she said that the consular section sent me an email requesting my passport 2 weeks ago ( although i checked my email and i haven't received nothing from them) i asked her if AP's cleared she said no, it's still pending but they need my passport!! what is that ??? and i asked her if my case is at the embassy or washington DC and she said embassy.

Anyway i've sent my passport thourgh royal mail and now i found out that i should've sent it through DX :(

what shall i do ? how i'm gonna receive my passport when the visa is issued?? do i have to call DX or the embassy??

if they are gonna issue me the visa then is it gonna be in a few weeks or it might take months again?

usually when London ask for passport do they issue visa right away or what ???

have anyone been through the same situation in the uk? please helppp i'm so anxious

PS ( i didn't send documentation with the passport, i just put it in an envelope and wrote my name, address and case number on it) is this gonna be ok?)

Thank you for you answer

what do you mean by documentation ?? i just sent the passport as requested by DOS and on the envelope i put my case nunmber plus my name and address, isn't it enough ? do you think i should send email and let them know that i have sent it ?
