Hello people of Sajha,

I am trying to renew my hand written passport through the Nepalese embassy in washington DC. I am aware of the A4 size requirement for the forms but I have a few questions.

1. It seems that there is a colored logo on the top left of the form that says" Government of Nepal, " etc. When we print the form, does it have to be printed in color? or is a Black and White copy enough?

2. About the photo requirements, it says in the embassy's website that the dimensions have to be either 35mm * 45mm, or 2in * 2in. But they clearly dont equal eachother. Do I have to worry about cutting anything ?or Can I just take a picture at a walmart or walgreens for a US passport and just send it to them?

3. In the Embassy's website, it says that a separate money order of $150 has to be sent in their name. Does this mean that one needs to mail the money order separately in a new mail with tracking number etc? Or can I just send it with the rest of the documents in the same package?

I would really appreciate if you folks could answer my questions or share your thoughts or experiences regarding this process.

Thank you very much,
