UncleBuck, did you send any originals or just photo copies? (And when I say photo copies, I am guessing they should be color and 2 of each.) Also, if copies were sent, how much of the passport must be copied? Every single page? Read More

I can add a bit to this. I called the consulate in Ottawa Canada. And regarding translating bank statements, I was told NOT necessary. I suspect this is because they are really "numbers documents" or financial in nature and thus very ... Read More

One other thing. Get a "dumb" TV if you can, with all the bells and whistles and the 6 trillion colors and the 3 billion to 1 contrast ratio. But AVOID "SMART". Unless you have a burning desire for the ChiCom/CIA friendly ... Read More
