Default NZ PR Holders - Sending passports for stamping

Couple of questions to the NZ PR holders .... Don,

1. How many days did it take between the London office receiving the migrant levy/passports and you getting back the stamped passports?

2. DId you send a 'self-addressed prepaid courier' along with your passports? How does this prepaid thingy work?
OR
did you send an extra amount (circa £25-30) as return courier charges?


Thanks
R

1. It took us about 12 days but this was in mid 2002, I gather now you can expect 3-6 weeks or so unless there is a case of urgency.

2. We paid for courier by Visa.

Cheers Don

Don,

Thanks for your reply.

For the return courier fee, did you pay for the minimum weight?

Another quick question - do they send any other settlement information (booklets etc) along with the passports?

Also when are the original docs returned (if any)?


Cheers

Return courier - it was a standard fee, I seem to remember GBP 25.

You have to pay for a settlement pack about GBP 35.

Original docs came back with passports if memory serves.
