@Tore ********
what part of he got his visa yesterday and also believes he needs a sticker to prove primary DTV, leads you to not deduce that he got an e-visa and he ain't gonna get a sticker?
My reply was that he doesn't need the sticker, just a copy of the primary DTV holder approval to apply for the dependant DTV. Then you chime in to say some places give stickers and some don't. Well yeah. He will never get a sticker, though his dependant might depending on where they apply.
What you have or don't have and how you got it is irrelevant. There's no mention of e-visa in his post because he is likely old school and unaware of electronic filing and e-visa approvals, he thinks he needs to pickup the sticker somewhere because of his approval email, which he doesn't realize is the actual visa he needs to print out. You basically stated the obvious to me, why I dunno.
Anyway thanks for your insight.
