Hi guys.
I have made a plan of events to help get my head around the Visa application; timing & sending of my documents & my wife applying for the VIP service at the VFS and paying the fee.
Please see the graph below.

Summary:
26th September > Pay Slip
27th Septmber > Go to Bank and get a "Statement with that salary shown" signed / dated by bank.
30th September > Post my documents via DHL.

Option 1.
My wife applies on line for VIP service and VFS and pays online before my documents arrive; giving us more time to arrange that trip and interview.

Giving her 17 - 18 days before the dead line.

OR

Option 2.

11th October >Estimated time documents will arrive.
12th Otober > Applies to the VFS.

Given her 13 days before the DEAD line of next pay slip.

What do you guys advise?
What is the average time from apply to VFS to getting the interview?

Many thanks

John
