Ive done some searching on this so forgive me if its obvious. I'm not normally this dense but I can't quite get the application process straight.
Is it :-
Pay at a bank, get the receipt
apply online
schedule appointment or walk in.
Or do you have to apply first, then pay?
I'm tying myself in knots trying to get everything prepped for my fiancees application. I THINK Ive got everything covered, but its getting ever harder to read detail :ARsurrender:
Also - is there any way of paying from the UK or am I going to have to use b:censored:d Western Union again?:Brick:

:
1. pay at the bank.ask for managers cheque.
2. apply online
3. schedule appointment online
its better to have an appointment when your fiancee goes to embassy for convenience

It's better to schedule an appointment first then pay at any accredited banks atleast a day or 2 before the appointment date....

Its not just me then.
2 answers so far, complete opposites.
I guess either way is OK then.
yes you can do either of the two options being mentioned by miss estherboax and miss Sophie and you have to pay it on the accredited banks set by the embassy. You cant pay it here in the uk sadly to say:NoNo:

make a appointment first after you have the date,make the payment at the bank to clear for that date and make sure what the rate will be for that date as it can change.

Here is what I did,
I made appointment online let say 1 week ago
Make sure before 48 hours of your appointment time you already pay the visa fee, because it need to be received your payment at british embassy account before they accept your application at VFS
Its better to pay in cash, but manager's cheque will do of course, get the receipt from the bank and bring it during submitting the doc
Hard to be walk in applicants, make appointment online

:xxgrinning--00xx3: yes 2 option will do, but to share my experience..first I have paid visa fee by using Manager's Check (BDO Bank) then schedule an appointment...the earliest available appointment was after 2 weeks:doh so what I did ...even I was 4 hours drive away in Manila I grab the opportunity as a Walk IN applicant coz I worried the visa fee may change within two weeks time so to avoid hassle I got the chance as walk in applicant and was submitted just only after 4 days after I got the Mcheck:) and then I cancelled my schedule appointment (online) so the slot can be provided for other applicant.
hope it helps:xxgrinning--00xx3:
So I guess schedule an appointment first before paying visa so you will be able to know the earliest possible time to submit it:)
Goodluck:Hellooo::Hellooo:
