After 3days of the CFO Seminar which is Friday (Nov. 05,2010), I went to Manila to lodge all our application. I got a text message from VFS that my application has been dispatched to the British Embassy on Monday (Nov. 08,2010), I was very excited if what will be the result on it, on Wednesday (Nov. 10) got a text message from them that the processed visa application has been couriered with the application number via 2go, I was very excited and felt like I had a butterflies in stomach every minute of that day, I cant even sleep of thinking about it! but Alas! I was so happy that I got a good result after that day, my Fiancee Visa has been approved in just only 2 days!.
I went directly to CFO office because of my excitement that I got the visa and so that I can get a sticker from them, I was very disappointed because they said that they cant stamp my passport because the visa is not yet valid until the day of January 15th, 2011. I was arguing by the officer encharge because why they cant stamp/put a sticker on it since the visa is already there!, I just got an answer that your visa is not yet valid . they can put a sticker on it during the validity period of my visa, the only problem I got is, we booked a flight already! and there is no office in Cebu on Saturday! how can I manage this?? they advised me that you can go to Manila CFO branch office since it is inside the Airport and is operating 24 hours, but how can I manage? if my flight from Cebu-Manila is 900-10:06am and my next flight from Manila-Manama is 12:05pm, I have to look for big NAIA International airport and look for their office first there, imagine?? looking around inside the airport with my 4 year old daughter with me, thats ridiculous!... but good thing that I knew it early and now Im done moving my scheduled flight, instead of January 15th I moved it on January 18th which is Tuesday, I think I can surely get a stamped sticker on it .
My advise to you guys is, if you got the visa and you still dont have CFO sticker stamped on your passport DO NOT book a flight first, it is a big hassle on your part and so much wasting of money. Im just worried of my Fiance because he spent big amount on this matter.
And now, my problem is the travelling ticket agency told me that before I book a flight for my daughter I have to get a REDUCE TAX TRAVEL CERTIFICATE in Department of Tourism before they can book a flight for my daughter and there is a processing fee for 280pesos in DOT and 800pesos to the travel agency, which is all in all cost us to pay 1080pesos for that. I wondered why we have to pay for that certificate??
Thank you so much for the advises here too, it did really help me a lot. For those who still on the process of their visa application, dont worry, it will approve as long as you have trust in Him I know He will help us. Im just so happy that I got my visa now, when me and my daughter will arrive in UK I know this is just a beginning of our life. Please wish me luck for my travel guys!!.
