Congratulations!

I think you cannot fly to UK before November 16. Your visa is not valid to be used prior to the said start date. I think you just made a typo error in your post. The validity of your visa starts on Oct 16, 2008 right? If that's the case then you can book your flight anytime now.

this is what it says on their website hope this may help:

By Prior Appointment: We strongly recommend you to visit the Application Centre by prior appointment. This will help you save unnecessary waiting time. You will particularly value the appointment facility during the peak season when long queues may be an occurrence.

Walk-in Submission without Prior Appointment: Walk-in Submission without Prior Appointment: With effect from 01 January 2008 applicants without a submission appointment will be accommodated from 0800 to 0900 ONLY, Monday to Friday.

Walk-in applicants are advised that the queue before they are attended to by a UK VAC Submission Officer may take anywhere from a few minutes or up to 2 hours or more depending on the volume of applicants on any particular day. For your convenience we therefore strongly recommend you book an appointment in a manner explained above.

have a look on their site, you can get all the info with regards which that includes how to book an appointment: www.vfs-uk-ph.com


No problem Ross am goin to put all the things that i have submitted for my spouse application...see ya..on the other thread when am done posted....thankssssssssssss.....coz its quite a lot....

PS....you can go at the ukvacs even without the said appointment but as what it said on the above its more convenient and easy for you if you set all ready before attempting to do any.......its really up to you.....but i will recommend you to book an appointment other than taking any risk to go there without having any idea if you can take it or not.....esp that you're living farther away..... Good Luck

We found that, with an appointment, you can be seen before your appointment time if you turn up early.
