6. April 17,2019 - Dropped off my passport in person at New York VAC. No appointment needed. Printout of Passport request, Original Passport, 2 signed consent forms, Contact information printout (address, email and ph no) and payment of USD 19.90. They accept cards. They gave me a receipt.
7. April 18, 2019 - Passport ready for pick up. 5 email notifications from VFS between April 17th and 18th.
8. April 22, 2019 - Picked up the passport in person. The receipt which they gave during passport drop off and id proof (US driving license/state id) were needed for passport pick up.
Instead of going in person, Passport dropoff and pick up can be done through post/courier. But I would strongly suggest to do it in person. During my 3 visits (biomentrics, passport dropoff, passport pickup) to New York VAC, Many people who chose the postal method were there to complain about that their passports were not received.
