Has anyone recently tried transferring a non-Immigrant OA visa and/or an extension of stay stamp based on it into a new passport at CW?   Long ago I did it with no problem so my current passport does not itself contain the original visa, it contains a box with info regarding the original visa, as well as a recent extension of stay stamp.   I just got a new passport and want to transfer those items into it.  This is in preparation for getting a new LTR visa (the LTR office insists on first doing the transfer of the old stuff).    But the LTR office wrote me "only certain types of visas—such as specific Non-Immigrant B visas, Smart Visas, and LTR Visas—are eligible for transfer at the immigration office."  Since they didn't mention OA visa, I'm asking here.  Anybody done it recently?

You are asking two basically unrelated questions.

The stamp transfer and visa information can be transferred.

Does not require pp with original Visa.

There is no appointment for that at CW.

It will be done at extension L desks.

Here is form CW use. The required docs at bottom.

Be aware that CW also now require Bank Book with print outs and update.

Thanks- but to be clear, what about the question whether specifically the OA visa (and/or its extension) is transferable at CW?    Understand:  the LTR office requires you to do this transfer on your own, through the regular Immigration procedure, before they will commence their issuance.  They do not get involved.  I only mention them because it is their statement (above) that made me nervous that maybe the OA is not transferable.

Visas are never transfered. 

The details of the Visa be it eg Non O or Non O-A etc are noted in first page of new pp. 

Stamps such as reentry permit etc are entered into new pp. Fresh stamp. 

The last extension stamp details will also be transferred.
