Here is
our experience with getting our visas from the Ottawa Iranian consulate:
Even though we had our visa application approved by the Iran Foreign Ministry,
we still had to fill out an application form for the Iran Embassy in Ottawa
Canada. Most of the questions were the same or similar to those that we had
answered for our original visa application. One major difference was that for
holders of Canadian passports, we were also required to provide a c.v. of our
education and work experience. We each had to supply one photo for the visa. The
embassy website did not specify a size for the photo, only that it be in colour
and without glasses. So we chose the standard photo size that is required for a
Canadian passport. We sent in the required documents by mail (a type of
registered mail provided by Canada Post) including a return envelope. We had our
visas sent back to us in one week.
To call the Iran Embassy in Ottawa for questions about visas, this was only
possible between 3:00pm and 4:00pm on weekdays and it was often difficult to get
through. Once through, however, the people answering our questions were very
helpful.
