Hi
need some immediate help!
i am residing in Canada.
I had applied for immigration for me and my wife who is residing in India and application is being processed in Detroit, USA. process in almost complete.
The embassy people have asked for Passports to grant visa.

Please tell me the process as of how to send her passport from India to Detroit as it is not legal to mail/courier the same.

Will the Canadian embassy in India forward her passport or can she give authorisation to someone to carry her passport to Deteroit.
Thank you

Not legal to courier a passport?  I've never heard that.  Is this a law specific to India?

1.  Yes it is illegal to courier/mail passport in or out of India
2.  Really 2 choices, have a trusted friend bring it to the US or attempt to courier it, by not stating what it is to the courier.  But that may be difficult.

I do have a trustworthy friend who can bring the passport.
But can my wife give him authorization to carry her passport.
Is this legal?
What if the enquiry people ask if passport gets traced in scanning?
Will they allow, if we have application from the Detroit Itself.
Thanks

Yes, as long as the person has the authorization and an explanation in writing, it should be okay.
