BillV 8-16-2004 Posted October 1, 2005 Report Share Posted October 1, 2005 I am a new member to this site, I have found some of the topics very interesting and helpful. I thought I might mention to members who do travel to China often that the USPS has a form DS-19 U.S. Passport Amendment/Validation Application, this can be used to add visa supplemental pages, so there is no need to purchase another passport and it's free. Hope this helps those who are finding there passport filing up. How do I add my timeline can anyone help? Thanks!!! Link to comment
cosmiclobster Posted October 1, 2005 Report Share Posted October 1, 2005 (edited) Welcome to CFL. Thanks for the info about adding pages to your passport!Hopefully we can help you along the way on your journey. To add your signature, click on your name at the top of the page just under the lit candle. It will take you to a page where you can enter many things. At the bottom of that page is a link "edit my signature" Edited October 1, 2005 by cosmiclobster (see edit history) Link to comment
jim_julian Posted October 1, 2005 Report Share Posted October 1, 2005 (edited) Supplemental passport pages are free as long as you deal directly with the USG. If you go through a visa agent you'll get charged. I've had supplemental pages many times ... the easiest way I've found to do it is to stop by any US Embassy or Consulate during the hours when "American Services" are being provided and you can get them while you wait.

frank1538 Posted October 2, 2005 Report Share Posted October 2, 2005 Welcome Bill. It looks like a horse race between your K-3 and your CR-1. Thanks for the info on passports. I needed additional pages and used this as an opportunity to go inside the consulate when we were in Guangzhou, look around, and meet a few people. From the consulate's website: "...Those only needing to add visa pages to their passports will submit an Application for Additional Visa Pages (DS-4085). This service is always free of charge." Good luck. Link to comment
jbray Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 I had it done at the embassy in Beijing. It was pretty easy/quick. I actually need to get it done again (3 years in China will do that to you). Link to comment
pkfops Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 I did it by mail and included a SA/Priority envelope. It only took two weeks. Link to comment
warpedbored Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 I found the filable form. It's a DOS form. here is a linkhttp://travel.state.gov/pdf/DS-0019.pdf Link to comment
coulter Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 This was very helpful information! Mailing passport in the US to get new pages, it falls into a black hole unless you pay the extra money ($60 I think) for an expedite. I walked into GUZ (10/2006)and it took me 10 minutes start to finish and walked out with extra pages. Link to comment
