    Hi All,

    Thank you very much for all your help. Words are not enough to express our gratitude. Our application was straightforward and organised because of the information you shared.

    Special thanks to AndyRam for helping me filling in the online form (from start to finish) and giving citations in our cover letter. And to KeithAngel, Bigmac, Timmers, Maharg, Firew0myn, Methersgate and the rest of the gang, your insights were considered in our application.

    Sharing with you our application's timeline:

    March 17,2016- online application submitted

    March 28,2016- enrolment of biometrics and submission of documents to Vfs Global Manila; forwarded to British Embassy on same day

    April 12,2016- decision has been made
    April 13,2016- Passport collection with visa

    Waiting time from submission date until decision made is 12 working days.

    Number of pages submitted: 500++
    with a 5-page cover letter. :)

    Again, thank you!!! God Bless you all.

    Oh so you have attended it, awesome! That should only take 10 minutes really. If I were you, go to CFO at around 2pm when there's not a lot of people around. We were told by our counselor that by then it's already like a ghost town lol!

    Yes. I attended the CFO guidance counseling seminar last year (1st week of September). So, can I just go there this week to get the sticker? No need for appointment? :)

    Yep, no need for an appointment. Oh but when is your visa valid?

    Reason why I ask is that they will only issue you the sticker if the visa is already in effect.

    So yeah, you can only get the sticker on May 7th. I think you can but not sure I would wanna risk it especially if you can get it straight from the CFO.
