Fiancee visa application forms lodged today at VFS.
Pleasant staff, and no problems (apart from omitting her mother's birthday,
which took 2 phone calls to establish ! , and unsure which documents were
originals & which were photocopies).
..... so, day one and counting .....

Good luck...
I'm still waiting here for the result of my visa application...more than 11 weeks now and no change!.
Life can be happier & less stressful if we remember one simple thought..We can't have all that we desire,but prayers will give us all that we deserve.God bless everyone!
Shayla...
Yes, I've been following the thread..... and feel for you.
It's amazing that they are centering all visa applications for the whole
regional area in Manila, and it's already beyond their capacity to provide a timely service just for the Philippines !
Waiting for the result is really frustrating, Im sure you all did your best to reached this point but now just relax and think positive.
Goodluck to all of you.
Not an expert, I only try to help.
Good luck to your application Bluebirdjones...!!!
wait for 13 weeks,if you got it earlier than that "you are lucky enough"
Good luck bluebirdjones

Hi Blue,
Do you think if I'm living in Metro Manila the visa result will be quicker?

there's no difference.
It base on applicants situation and supporting documents and depends if the embassy is busy or not. Some applicants received their result less or more than the time limit of visa processing.

... Sorry, I didn't make myself clear ...
... as posted some days ago by another user...
The UK Border Agency has announced that the British Embassy in Manila will be the new regional hub for visa processing starting January 2009.
The Manila post will handle UK visa applications for Japan, Hong Kong and South Korea. Other regional offices may also submit its visa applications for processing later this year.
... so proximity to Manila means nothing.
Take care

Thanks LadyJ,
I think something is unlikely why it took long time. It's not fair I think to me lol.
Anyway I have no choice here so all I can do is to sit and wait here..
Wish me luck
Cheers!

Hello Blue,
Will I be affected with the new visa processing which took effect last month?
I think only me left who applied last NOV 2008 and no result..The rest got their visas!...My case is too hard to handle

I would think that you are affected by this, maybe it is the reason why you are still waiting. Manila started dealing with the other nations visa applications in January - so maybe we are all affected by this new strategy - maybe all applications start getting longer now.Hello Blue,

Praise, take this, the fact that one week was a Christmas week, as reasons why you are still waiting. It won't be long now. I know you are maybe tired of hearing it, but it will not be long now. Good luck always.
When we applied, I was hopeful to hear in 8 weeks, now I am expecting a 13 week wait.
more likely to do with your age, i might be wrong, but the 2 couples who are waiting the longest were under 21 when they applied ??I would think that you are affected by this, maybe it is the reason why you are still waiting.

It's bad like waiting for almost 3 months...It's stressful and tiring.. Now I have doubts why mine is taking so long and some people here who applied last Nov 27,2008 and they don't have any problem about waiting
..
Hmmmm..I don't mind waiting though as long as it's granted in the end..
Am I wishing???...Well I'm trying to build my hope because who knows they will grant me because of my daughter and they will just ignore my age...
Ady I bet your wife will get her visa earlier than me lolbut good luck to yous as well...
Cheers!

Hello Joe,
Probably with my age that's why it's taking long time for the result but do you think they will refuse me knowing that my daughter is a British Citizen?
How about this, do I have the chance to get a positive result???
All the best to all of us who are waiting
Thanks!

i don't think it will make any difference
well seeing they've not refused you yet, which is a good sign at least,
when are you 21 ?
In the meeting with the British Consul, today, she acknowledged that settlement visas are currently taking up to four months to be processed. Despite taking on additional staff, the load imposed by processing visas from other Asian countries is slowing things down.
i don't think it will make any difference

That's alright Ate Juliet..What will be will be...God is good and we will find a way to be together as a family.If this year is not the right time for us to be in the UK then I'm willing to wait...No choice eh..
To Joe,
I have regrets why my age is young but never ever happen I have regrets with my matured mine

And this is supposed to be when visas are issused quickest
Feel sorry for the rush of summer applicants who could be in for a 5 month wait if the backlog keeps building
The clock has STOPPED TICKING
At precisely 4 weeks & 3 days
... or for the more "metric" or "decimal" minded of you out there
31 days
Next stop, CFO in Davao
Then scouring the internet for the cheapest flight option.
Guys/girls (esp Shayla), don't give up hope.
It'll happen.
Just believe.
congratulations!!!
... and I meant the CFO in Cebu !
.... rather excited & not thinking straight !
SOON SOON SOON!
Next step will be her flying to be with you! and then the long wait is over!
when is she coming to see you? or you going to pick her up?
yuhooooooooooooooooo
another batch......
congratulation !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Congratulations
Congratulations Bluebirdjones!
Congratulations ...
