Is it necessary to travel to DC for an employment visa, or can all material be submitted by mail?

Thank you.

gork,

in my limited, one-time personal experience, it depends. when the saudi visa coordinator learned that my physical distance to DC was an 18-hour drive, he went ahead and set me up with a DC-based visa coordinator with whom i have had post, email, and telephone contact. this set me back 120 bucks, but is supposedly reimburseable upon submission of receipt.

hope this helps,
leez

I know people who've done it by mail. As for visa agency expenses being reimbursed or not, obviously it depends on your employer.

We just received the work visa. Everything was done by mail--we never saw the embassy. We did, however, hire an agency to help us.
