PDOS Seminar Question

[sunsetdolphin 6]

Hi! Just wanna ask if we really need to bring the original immigrant data sheet with the visa packet? I am really confused because in the Barcoded Confirmation Form email sent to us by CFO it is written there that we must bring "Original Immigrant Data Summary for USA-bound emigrant (must not be detached from visa packet) except for K visa holder." However, at the CFO website it is written there "Photocopy of Immigrant Data Summary for USA-bound emigrant (must not be detached from visa packet)" only. We will definitely bring a photocopy of our immigrant data sheets however, we don't want to bring the original one to prevent it from being damaged. So if it isn't needed, we'll just bring a photocopy and just leave the packet at home. Anyone who has already finished their PDOS yet?

Both.  They want to see the original document and keep the copy.     (Do protect the DO NOT OPEN envelope so the sheet does not get detached, nor the package tore)

Hi everyone, just wanna update this. I just had my PDOS earlier and I was shocked because we brought all the requirements needed for the seminar but all they did was take the photocopy of the Immigrant Data Sheet. We gave it together with the passport photocopy, ID photocopy and visa photocopy (visa packet was inside my bag and didn't even show it to them) but they just gave all of those back to us and didn't even take a glance of it! Not sure if the officer was just confident about our case or he just forgot to check it! Anyway, at the end of the day, we all got out CFO stickers!

CFO is not as demanding about documents for PDOS.  With GCP that is another story, but that is for fiancee and spouse of foreigners

 

Now you have your sticker ... traveling time
