Hi WeekrisH,
My request has been received by FBI on 9-NOV-2011 (Just one day before you ).
I have given my friend's credit card details . As my friend is currently out of town no way to check with him about the credit card deduction. I have already submitted courier tracking detail screenshot and CO has given me extension till 3rd Jan ...hope I will get my PCC till that time ....counting days ...

Please PM me once you get your PCC. All the best.
Thanks,
A

My request was received on 10-Nov and my card was charged exactly 5 weeks later on 15-Dec . I called FBI helpline and they said it will be 2-3 weeks once card has been charged.

Based on recent data it is taking 9 weeks for the FBI request from time they received it to the time it is in our mail. Im afraid we wont receive it by Jan 3,2012 It would be awesome if we could

You may want to request another extension now considering that DIAC is on holiday starting 26th thru 28th Dec and on Jan 2,2012.

Some FBI timeline threads from other forums that may be of help

Please post your FBI request times.

3) Include credit card form (18USD) (the form is available in the FBI website) and identity proof.
4) The local police station told us that we need to post it ourselves.
5) We included a return envelope with postage paid and posted it to FBI.

Waiting for the PCC!

Hi ,
Thanks for the information. How did you do step 5 ie return envelope with postage paid ? I am in Australia and unable to find a postage paid envelope at the Australia Post that the FBI can use from US?

Any pointers shall be highly appreciated.

Thanks,
Harish

Open a Fedex account and put down the account number on the application. Also, If you selected US first class as delivery option it should deliver overseas but it might take longer.

You could also print a prepaid postage stamp for Priority Mail international/Express Mail international on the USPS website depending on how fast you need the results.

I tried searching on the USPS website for the prepaid postage stamp. I think you are referring to the international shipping label which I can print and paste in an envelope and send to FBI. However, if I try to create a label form the site , it asks for shipping date (in a drop-down which gives me options for next 4-5 days only).
Hence I am confused how to go about it. Any information on this?


Thanks,
Harish
