Not to dishearted anyone but my own application for a schengen visa was painless and I think, it&#39;s because we didn&#39;t apply from the French embassy [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/Grin.gif[/img]

Seems the people who use the French Embassy are having a hard time...

An update, Elsa had her Schengen Visa thru the post this morning, which is very quick, considering we only sent details of the flight on 22 May (the actual interview at the Spanish Consulate was 25th April).

what we&#39;ll do is just re-new at the Netherlands embassy.
So that&#39;s another avenue future applicants could consider.

Cielo, how is the visa renewed? Is a new application done or do you ask for a renewal form? With the Spanish, we have to apply all over again next January, another trip to sunny Manchester (not that Elsa will mind - all those shopping centres [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/huh.gif[/img] )

I haven&#39;t really tried to be honest, but i&#39;m assuming that i would apply for a new one and because it would show in my passport that i&#39;ve been approved once before, it would be easier. good luck to me [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/BouncyHappy.gif[/img] I may have spoken too soon. love to elsa&#33; xxx

Usually the visa given to wives of EU nationals is a multi entry and is valid for six months - thereafter apply again.

I expect that as you have one then the second will be more readily approved
