UK Visa

[little_princess]

^ didn't do that but I saw some people who did when I applied. still a considerable wait if there is a lot of people on the day of your appointment but a breeze if there isn't.

I did the 1-2 day wait period for the result and i was happy with it and less time to worry if I would be approved or not.

^That's the priority visa right sis? Where do we pay for that additional service? We are intending to avail of that also.

[little_princess]

^ yes I think. You pay on the day itself to the person collecting your data. you just mention to them that you want to avail of the priority visa and they will check your documents if you qualify and be asked to pay.

my boyfriend and i plans to lodge a fiancé visa for me.. he is a british citizen in UK, born and living in UK.. by checking the gov.uk website it says that I need to complete the personal details form and the appendix 2 form.. do i still need to do the online visa because I already printed the application forms... and about the requirements i am a bit confused of everything.. which is really needed to be compiled and sent? TIA

[little_princess]

^ for info on finace visa, I go to a forum called british-filipino.com, there is a very detailed thread there about fiance visa

[glacy_rein]

^thank you sis!

[juana_antonia]

Sis glacy_rein the form you need to fill up and submit ay directly from gov.uk.  Pati payment and schedule ng submission via online din. Medyo tedious ang partner visa- you need English speaking exam,  TB test, and CFO seminar to name a few.

Hi mga sis..!
[textspeak!] bang mas madaling maapprove ngayon pag pupuntang london, student visa or tourist?

[little_princess]

^ statistically, there are more tourist applications than student so mas madaming na aapprove for tourist visa applications. they have different requirements too and I think if student visitor, you have to have a letter from the school as well

[imdWOMANwhocntbemove]

^ah I see sis..so that means mas maraming requirements pag student visa..? And kailangan pa bang magexam ng ielts pag tourist visa ang kukunin?

[little_princess]

^ yes, i suggest you check the website for the eligibility and the requirements. As far as I know, you have to be accepted already to be able to apply for a student visitor visa.

Tourist visa, no ielts

[imdWOMANwhocntbemove]

^thanks for answering my queries sis.sige, I'll just check thier website na lang kung anung visa ang mas applicable sa akin..

[little_princess]

^ what is your purpose of going to the UK? If you plan to study and has been admitted in a school or institution, then it is a student visitor visa. If you want to see the sights, it would be the general visitor visa. There are also other visit visas like family visit visa, etc.

[glacy_rein]

^^with student visa you have to undergo a personal interview now unlike with other purpose wala na

Hubs and I had our appointment at VFS this morning. Our sched is 11am and 11:10am consecutively, we came late, time in ko is 11:16am. We opted for the Premium Lounge, well, it's not so Premium or VIP afterall. It took us 3 hours to finish everything. Dami din tao kanina sa VIP, worst is, nasingitan pa kami ng group of Phil. Marines and some higher officers siguro nila sa biometrics (Pilipinas nga naman!!!).

Crossing our fingers now....

[mrs. sweet]
