Hey I think u got the wrong information for the 10th point. U have written that it takes 2 or 3 days to get the visa and passport bt its nt the case. If they have given a date after applictaion for visa the soonest date would be after one week. Bt even after one week also if u go they will take that case the same day and proceed the work and u may have to wait there the whole day if you want it the same day. Otherwise they will ask to come after one day. Thats the normal proceedure. The last time i extended my visa was a month back. It took them whole week bt when I went to collect it, they didnt even touch it. It was the same as it was one week back. I had to wait there for 5 hrs to collect that the same day.
It would have been very helpful if u had given the address of the Srilankan Immigration Dept, coz its changed to a new building in Punchi Borella.
