Can anyone tell me what the courier fees for passport/visa return would be for Islamabad. I've heard they ask you to pay these fees at the time of interview so they can courier the passport with visa back to you...otherwise you may be left to travel back to Islamabad to pick it up and since my husband is 4 hours away we thought we would prepare for the courier service instead if they ask. Just want to be sure he takes plenty of money...

and is there any other fees that we may be required to pay at that time? We have sent a receipt for both the AOS and IV bill showing paid so that won't be an issue.

Thanks!

how did they receive their visa? My husband would have to fly back to ISL to pick it up so it woul be more realistic to courier it to him...just need to know what the fee for that is and if they want you to pay for that @ the time of interview

Tell him to keep some amount of money with him incase anything happen like that but they dont ask money i think its covered with all the fee you already paid them.and my mom n dad got their passport throu some fedex type service .
