I am in US on H1 B visa. I have been receiving all correspondence from CIC, delhi on my US address for past 2 yrs. I received my passport request from CIC, Delhi last month. It specified to send the passport by secured mail.
I sent my passport to India thru a relative to India.
Now the embassy has sent me letter saying that they want an Indian address for mailing my passport.
But there is none thru whom I can get my passport back. Can I request the passport to be sent to my address in US.
(This is so irritating- A person in US can't request for his/her file to be moved to CIC, US --get a curt response will remain in delhi office and then u know u send a request for passport to be sent by secure mail to a person residing in US and then all of sudden when ur turn comes to mail back, u say " No can't mail back to US"..know am ranting but can't help it )
Can you pls suggest what are my options in this case.
Thanks
They will not send the passport out of india as it is illegal.You need to provide them with indian address may be address of a friend who took your passports from US.
Not necessarily, if your passport is needed in another country (for some reason or official work/identity verification etc.), you can send it if law permits from the country you are sending it from.
