Ive lodge my visa last nov 14 for pbs tier 4 visa. Got a message right after that they are already processing it at the british embassy then last monday an update again stating its peak season and might take longer. Now its been a week. I hope i'd get it soon. The tension kills me already. Yikes!

[riksy07]

Sisses, question lang. It may sound silly though. I just need confirmation on what I have to do.

Currently, I have pretty much all of my required documents for the visa application (except for the plane bookings- since KLM only has a two-week time to think option and I'm planning to get the booking kapag malapit na ako magfile ng application and certificate of employment and approved leaves). Do I need to call for a schedule ba or the mere act of accomplishing the online form will signify na my application? May nabasa kasi ako na once nasubmit na the online application form that's when they get the schedule for documents submission. I need to have my application lodged around December 27 onwards because I'm planning to be in London by March 28, 2013. I'm just worried baka ang ibigay nilang schedule sa akin if I apply ng December 27 eh January or February na eh mag-aapply pa rin ako for Schengen visa afterwards. Baka lang magahol ako sa oras.

^you'd book your appointment sis via online.

What i did nauna pa online booking ko bago ako nagsubmit ng application form. Ikaw naman pipili ng appointment date.

what are the peak months of the UK embassy?

[glacy_rein]

^ngayon sis peak sila, ayon sa sms update..

[rave21lala]

^sis, ikaw yung nagmessage sa akin about uk student visa diba? after lodging your application, you have to wait for two weeks, tatawagan ka for the phone interview. kung tatawagan ka ng morning, the same day ipapadala na nila yung passport with or without visa so marereceive mo yun kinabukasan. pero kung tatawagan ka ng afternoon, kinabukasan pa ipapadala tapos the next day mo pa marereceive.

[glacy_rein]

^waaaaaahhhh sis tumawag na nga saken kanina mga 11am pero got no message na pwede na ipick up... woooohh kinabahan naman ako tuloy... @_@

sana bukas meron na at positive na. mahigpit yata sila ngayon halos tinanong lahat tungkol sa application ko eh. maybe testing the waters how well i know it and good thing hands on ako sa pagprocess.

[rave21lala]

^tumawag na? hehe! ano nakausap mo, lalake o babae? sa akin ang tinanong dati about the school and course, funds and future plans. tomorrow morning ka siguro makakareceive ng text or email. ako kasi tinawagan 1pm tapos kinabukasan ng morning may email sa akin na nakalagay "your visa will be dispatched shortly" tapos nung hapon may nagtext sa akin na pwede na daw kunin sa vfs pero since for delivery yung akin, kinabukasan pa siya dumating. good luck sa application mo! anong school ang course mo?

[glacy_rein]

^lalake sis. Yeah same from name of school, course, modules, etc. lahat talaga hinimay, got an email already na "your visa will be despatched shortly!!!" Woooohh! This is it! Hopefully makuha ko na mamaya yung sakin from courier kasi binago ko, sabe ko pick up nalang. I cant wait to see it!!

Hello Everyone!

Have just recently registered but have been reading your thread every now and then.

Congrats to those who were granted visas :-)

I did not know that processing UK visa would take up to 15 days..is this true? To those who recently applied around November, was it really 15 days?

Thanks a lot.

[riksy07]

Sisses, question. Sa online application for the visa, which website did you apply in? Did you apply through the link in the UKBA website or through the VFS Global website?

[glacy_rein]

Ukba website. Appointment at tracking lang magagawa mo sa vfs

[foxymom]

@travel_is: we got our visa after 5 working days, but our friends after 12 working days

[riksy07]

^^thanks for the reply sis glacy.

Question ulit. I have money in the bank na nakatime deposit. It's been there for several months now. Proceeds siya ng sale of land ng dad ko and nung pinasok niya sa bank he had it under my name. Would I be required to present documents pertaining to the deed of sale ng land ng dad ko to support the origins of the money I have?

[travel_is]

^^ Thank you for the reply, Foxymom:-) i really appreciate it. Yeah, i can only hope that my UK Visa Application will be approved before I fly out to the Schengen states on the 18th. I already received SMS notification that processing might take awhile as it is their peak season.

Again thanks:-) will update soon.

[glacy_rein]

^for what visa sis? Tourist? Hindi ko alam kung necessary sya kasi hindi mo naman sya magagamit... It will only show na may pera ka na nakaipit... As per my tier4 visa kasi hindi ko sya ginamit kasi inispecify na kailangan available yung money anytime.

Wait natin sagot ng iba
