movement certificate paper

[doodlebug 3]

OK so today he goes to Passport office to get his movement certificate... they tell him 3 weeks & they only needed a copy of his ID card... is that normal??? I wanted him to give them a copy of his passport but they wouldnt take it

3 weeks are fine for Alex ..

but did they look at his passport at least to see when it was issued and when it will expire and also to take the passport number ?

if they did so that's fine they don't need to keep it and there is no need for a copy BUT if they didn't take these info i would say there should be missunderstanding coz i know the movement certificate must include the passport details .

Wael did you have this movement certificate too?

no they haven't requested it .. maybe they will, maybe they won't .. coz it's not a basic requirement .

I think it is an official certificate showing exactly where you have moved in and out of the country. It is needed not all of the time. A few have had it requested but no telling why they request it from some and not others.

it's a piece of paper, has the immigration department stamp .

tells the ( dates / places / period of time / purpose of visit ) whenever the one has been out of the country ..

i wish i was sure why it's needed

Moh never travelled out of Egypt either plus the consulate had his passport during AP/AR. Who knows why they want it from some and not from others. At any rate, this may signal the end to your waiting, Tam, so consider it a good thing.

excuse me .. but was your friend there for another movement cerificate too ..

or you are just trying to say that because your passport was left at the embassy since the interview so you gave them your friend passport instead of yours ?

in this case you should expect the movement certificate to be under your name but the rest of the info is gonna b your friend passport's details

My SO decided he needed this (especially since he has travelled outside the country alot) and went and got it anyway the same day he requested his military record and police report. I told him he didn't need it bc I hadn't read this thread and I just realized this is the paperwork he was telling me about..... So I guess it's a good thing he went and requested it and will send it in with the rest of his pkt 3

the military record and the police report are fine ... but the movement certificate is not to be obtained untill the embassy request it .

I agree since not everyone has been requested to obtain it. Not sure if it would actually hurt your case by including it. They may request another later on even though your SO already included it with the packet 3.
