British Embassy Blue Slip

[Rory]

I was talking to my wife last week and she told me she had make an appointment with the British Embassy, i asked why and was told she had to have interview. I let the matter drop and let her get on with it.
She went last friday, had the interview, got asked a few questions and received a blue slip. I then asked if she had gone for her CFO sticker, she told me yes.

The question is.... see is only now applying for her passport and does not have the visa yet. I thought the CFO sticker was the last thing to get. How can she have got this first?

the cfo sticker is only given once the visa is valid...she may have got the certificate for the cfo seminar but mine was yellow

[Rory]

Yes, i think it was the certificate, i just thought you could not even get this until you had your passport and visa.

I do not know why her got a blue one then!!!

maybe they change the color
btw the cfo sticker will be attached to the passport and a final certificate which looked like a cheque stapled in one of the blank pages of her passport.

Is there a time limit from when you get the certificate, to when you can convert it to the sticker in your passport?

The Seminar was in Cebu, maybe they have blue ones in Cebu and Yellow ones in Manila?

Yes i am sure it was the CFO she get the blue slip from not the Embassy as she was telling me.

So will she have to go again for the yellow slip or is that all in with the blue slip?

My wife's stickers, last year, were green and yellow. From the CFO in Manila. She didnt receive either from the embassy. This entailed 2 visits to the CFO

1] Before she was given the visa.

2] After she was given the visa.

( She could have had them done both together but only after she was given the visa.)

I will let her know that we will have to get another grilling from the select committee before she can get the yellow one.
