Apart from preparing for the wedding I have struggleed getting through the lines of Home Office to make an appointment, finally in 20 September I managed to booked for 26 October for 3 PM, its the only day available for the month before my visa expires today, 31 of October.. yaiks I should be at Heathrow by now!
We arrived at Home office before 3 PM, earlier on that day my friend advised me to take all documents I have, so I rush to have wedding photos printed, and some previous holidays in the Phils, electricity bills, Mortgage certificate, letters, anything I can think of....Check list marked and completed. At the Home office, in a premium application we were led to the first counter right away, I was feeling sick and cold in Luke's hand, he was calm. I feel a bit better when I saw the lady stamped my papers VALID,Yeah, they only needed the marriage certificate, our payslips, and my student certificate. My bulk of docs stayed tight in my folder....
Thought that was it, only to find out it was just the first screening, we were lead to pay the visa fee, and our number was called right away for encoding of details, they took the passport sized photos and scanned, directed to biometric screening(this should me my 3rd time) waited for 20 mins before I was called in. waited for another 20 mins before a PEO called as in for the interview, He was nice he just asked for the docs and asked me if I still attend my classes. he took our documents and gone for a minute, and asked us to wait to complete the case. another 15 mins.
then he came back with the letter confirming my approved Visa.
I signed the paper, we said thank you and left, took the train at 5 PM back to London. I was warmer this time.
From 'Wings of Song' to "floating on air", eh! Further congratulations, both.
