Copies of old passport

[bandj]

Forgot to copy visa pages......

I have a new passport (9 months old) which shows 5 trips to China - seven by the time of interview. Was wandering if anyone knows if it is possible to get copies of previous passport pages to show prior visits to see SO? I assume my frequent visits on current passport will help but with this process (ordeal) you never know.

 

Snowing so much it looks like a warm day in Beijing.

Too late now for you but I usually ask them to return my old PP which they do.

Do they not just do it automatically? I have all three passports that I've been issued (the current one and two expired ones). I guess I've always requested the previous ones without thinking about it, come to think of it.

When I renewed my passport via mail, I got the old one back - hole punched of course, but with the old visa pages there. This was a number of years ago, so maybe things have changed.

I just did mine this past year and got the same thing - with the hole punches. I'm almost positive I put this in the request letter, though. I also requested the larger passport (48 pages), which should save me a few trips to add pages later on.

I remember asking for the old one to be returned. If I didn't ask, the old one would have been destroyed.
