Study in St. P -- Passport registration

[Donald Loewen]

Hopefully the registration won't take three weeks, but in addition to the
photocopy of passport pages and the visa, it is highly advisable to have an
official letter (with all the usual stamps, seals, etc.) from the agency
handling the invitation and registration (a school?) that indicates the
passport has been taken for registration.  Hopefully that is standard
practice, but some organizations don't do it unless they receive a
request.  In general, the more documentation of that sort, the better.
