No need to worry.

The average waiting time is about 4-7 weeks. So the chances are you will be in the Uk in January.
Good luck

IMPORTANT ADVISORY
New Visa Applications Forms (VAFs)
From 29 October 2007 onwards, applicants wishing to apply for a UK visa must use the New Visa Application Forms (VAFs). These new forms are free of charge and will be available from 29 October by clicking on the "Application Forms & Guidance Notes" link on the left side of your screen or go to Ukvisas's website atwww.visa4uk.fco.gov.uk/. You need to fill in only one of the forms depending on what type of visa you want to apply for. The guidance notes will tell you which form you should fill in and give advice about additional documents you need to submit when making your application.
Applicants are advised that the old VAFs will be accepted only until 16 November 2007.

[mhynne]

thanks for all your greetings..
i already filed it last thursday.. Thank God my Passport came on time..
I was basically lugging my big tote bag with 2 huge and very heavy expandable folders inside it... i just parked at my office in rcbc and walked all the way there.. good thing it was soo near... it also happend around the time there was a coup attempt in makati.. god is good.. because i left 3 hours early and missed the traffic...
So i went in and waited for my turn.. my appointment was supposed to be at 215pm but i was already called at around 145pm... so good thing i was early...
i approached counter 1 and got a really nice lady named joanne.. she helped me sort out my documents.. and it was funny how we were chitchatting and how i was telling her about my husband... anyway she was really nice.. she made sure that all my documents were secured.. she basically sorted out my papers and seperated the photocopies from the original.. photocopies and originals were put in 4 brown envelopes which she later on put in a long plastic envelope again.. she even put 3 rubber bands on them so they wouldnt get lost... after we were done with everything she gave me a reciept and then i got my picture taken and my finger print scanned.. it was not intimidating at all when i was there.. people were really friendly..

anyway im waiting now.. hopefully i get my visa without interview..

[mhynne]

goodluck to you and andy!!!!

thanks sis eula.. thanks for all your help and advices too.. hopefully i get to see you in the UK one day

Hello.. Did you use the new visa application forms?

Just wondering, because I've accomplished the OLD ones a long time ago, and was thinking if I could still catch up like you did, if you know what I mean? heheh.

[mhynne]

yup i used the new one greenbeltboy

[tiger@tigress]

Goodluck to you Mhynne.
