collecting re-entry permit
I've applied for a re-entry permit from the U.S. Can I ask the London Embassy to post it to my address when they receive it? I would be interested in any infomation concerning the re-entry permit.
Thanks.
Thanks.

To the OP, best bet in asking in the immigration forums here.
