Not an expert, I only try to help.
yes, just becuase someone got a visa within 3 days doesn't mean it was becuase of thier evidence was excellent, there are many factors in how quick a visa is processed, the size of the queue, random checks - which will delay the app, time of the year - holiday periods take longer, embassy staff are on hols etc, more aspps that time of year, yes it depends on the evidence and also your circumstances - i had more evidence than anyone on here, letters, bills , logs, nearly 3 years worth ! but it still took the embassy nearly 3 months to process my misses visa appOriginally Posted by LadyJ
(it must have taken them 3 months to look thru it
)
so just becuase a friend didn't pay doesn't mean you will be so lucky , or people sent their visa app too early or too late and still got thier visa, doesn't mean the person who's dealing with your app will be so easy , maybe they know the rules and go by them ..
On the medical check ups from what i know the only British airport that does the X rays is Heathrow.
Me & my hubby have two options on what airline are we going to fly by the time i get there. If we'll fly thru KLM, we won't pass london- heathrow coz it will be amsterdam then edinburgh, but if we'll fly thru Qatar airways, then my point of entry will be london-heathrow. Tho we're not sure yet which of the two.
i think i'll just bring a chest x-ray with me to be sure & to avoid delays if ever i will be asked about it. do you think they will honor x-rays from Phils.?
thanks ahead for any reply!
Hi amiga. I think Heathrow is an awful airport and you can be subject to many delays for luggage, immigration, etc.
Schiphol, Amsterdam is a lovely airport. I'm there on average once a week. If I remember correctly you would arrive at about 5pm and your connection to Edinburgh is from Gate D6 at about 9pm.
The likelihood of requiring an x-ray there is also very low.
Good luck!

If you are transiting i.e passing though heathrow but not actually going landside (i.e in to the uk) you will be ok.
I think some other ladies have brought x rays and some countries they have to get a test as part of the visa application i belive.
You will still have to get some paperwork processed if you do use heathrow as your enter britain landside point and bring x rays. Maybe others know what difference it makes if it is busy.
When my wife arrived at heathrow there was no wait so did not make much of a difference.
like Piamed writes schipol is a lovely airport pass though it a little less than the man but one of our companies HQ is near there so spend many a mornign or evening hanging around there.
We should meet there for Sushi or Noodles sometime andypaul. Layovers there can be ptetty long as you know.
It's amazing how many people I can't seem to meet in the UK and other places but yet manage to bump into at Schiphol. I have in recent weeks twice sat next to or behind senior execs from my main rivals in one of the lounges and had to interrupt and advise them who I work for as they chatted about confidential company stuff publically.

When I arrived at the UK Airport with my Spouse Visa, I was instructed by the Immigration Officer to go to the NHS Office (near the immigration que ). The Head Nurse asked me if I ever had my pap smere check-up within the last 3 months. Luckily, I got one (in UK) before I went back to Philippines, as I stayed in UK with a tourist visa.
I think, they just want to register your name with the NHS. They usually send out letters for clinical purposes like inviting you for pap smeres, etc.
cheers!
yES i DID, and she is now sitting in a hot boiling water
to: Piamed & andypaul
Thanks guys for your replies!
my hubby also thought of flying thru KLM, in that way, my port of entry will be edinburgh airport where he worked & where he could possibly help me out if there will be problems.
anyway, still have to wait for my visa though! I'm now on my 5th week of waiting!
this is another thing to consider as i haven't tried even once.When I arrived at the UK Airport with my Spouse Visa, I was instructed by the Immigration Officer to go to the NHS Office (near the immigration que ).
