Visa help needed!!!

RKT · Oct 7th, 2007, 02:42

Good news! We got it, but only after some persuasion and the extra fee, making a total of £55. But we did have a genuine medical situation to do with an aunt's illness.

As far as I am aware, they are now handing out tickets for next Wednesday or Thursday. So, if you go on Monday the 8th, you may well not get your visa the same day, although I don't know what the position is if you queue up very early. There is, however, a notice on the ticket windows saying that they are handing out for Tuesday the 9th. This is clearly out of date!

I'd be interested to know if others are experiencing similar delays this week?

There are delays at the HCI London. They have posted advice on their website hcilondon.org under "Notice for Visa Applicants" Due to a substantial increase in demand.........same day service may no longer be possible. Well, that was inevitable after the withdrawal of the postal application service. Not difficult to anticipate that one!
