Subject: Visa Stamping - I'm currently out of the country
  Hi,

I have a quick question about the immigrant visa stamping.I´ve applied for canadian immigration through Buffalo and I am out of Canada right now; my friend (who is monitoring my mail) informed me that the Canadian consulate is asking for my passport for stamping the immigrant visa!

Since I am out of Canada, is it possible that I could send my passport through mail to my friend and he send it to Buffalo on my behalf and get the visa stamped? once he gets the passport, he will mail the passport back to me in my country.

Now my questions are:

(1) Is it ok to do what I just described?
(2) Will I be able to enter Canada using the visa which has been stamped that way?
(3) Any other issues that you might think of?

Thanks,
Brandon

I think it´s technically possible, but a bit questionable. It´s really not advisable to send one´s passport across international borders through the mail. This in fact may not be legal according to some country´s laws. As far as visa vilidity, it shoud be ok once you get it from wherever you enter Canada.

The other option is to contact the Canadian consulate and ask them how to handle this situation. Better to be up front with them. In the long run, this is always the best course.

Others may want to comment on this.
