The Brown Envelope

[tibortt 0]

Hi everybody, we just got a phone call from the Dublin Embassy. The person asked us to bring a brown envelope with 8 Euros worth of stamps on it.

Does anybody knows what is the envelope for and why is it necessary?

My wife has the interview set for next Tuesday at 13:00.

Thank you!

Some consulates ask you for a prepaid envelope to send your passport back after the interview.

I assume with the visa in it - correct? Thanks for your reply.

IN Dublin, they usually give you back the passport with the visa in it the same day, but if they ae very busy or if they ened to check some things, it may be a day or two. The envelope is so they can send it back to your mailing address, especially if you do not live in Dublin and thus cannot just pick it up.

It isn't the general practice anymore to hand back passports w/visa in it on the same day. They mail it to the applicants in the brown envelope along w/other docs they may keep at the time of the interview.
