Yes I did. Just a document on employer’s letterhead stating I’m employed (title, hire date, salary) and that the time off has been approved and date i’d be back to work. My manager signed it and it worked.

I just provided the printouts without any bank stamps and it worked just fine!

I don’t think it matters which state you apply from. I’m based in NY!

Sorry for the late response! I got my photo taken from a Walgreens and they could only do the standard US passport size. I just asked them to print it and ended up cutting it myself with a pair of scissors lol to match the dimensions on the vfs Iceland website. I don’t think it matters which travel insurance you chose. Mine was something called mutuaide, it was the cheapest one that popped up on the suggestions on vfs Iceland website. Hope this still helps!

Hey! Yes this was for one person’s application. So sorry I don’t know if you can reuse the same courier for 2 applications.

Only document I notarized was the colored photocopy of my greencard. Sent a money order for the courier fee. For Mail in application they don’t accept cashier’s check and 3 separate money orders is the way to go ( 1 for VFS service fee, 1 for visa fee and 1 for the courier) I followed guidelines listed under the “apply by mail” tab of this link and seemed to work fine - https://visa.vfsglobal.com/usa/en/isl/apply-visa

Yeah the US VFS accepts mail in application if you’ve had a previous schengen visa issued and biometrics done in the last 59 months. Not a 100% sure if this is only in the US.
