Hi Jettii,
did you put in the web reference that you were given and did you go to retrieve/modify form?

Yes I did but it must take a while for it all to register because I have just printed them so panic over :hols
I hope my best mate appreciates what I have to go through so I can force her to go to Goa yet again :rofl :rofl :rofl
Thanks Squigs, the race is on :wave:

PS Yes I will remember to get her to sign the form before I post it off, even though its my day off I will go into work and shove it under her writing hand ;)

hello
i just checked up on the visa site to track our visa,it says processed applications have been sent to royal mail for delivery,which means they will be in our hands by 1pm tomoro,so fingers crossed sending them to london hasnt been a problem
we shall find out tomoro when i open the envelope and check if the visa is in it,otherwise i will have to resend them to birmingham

Just wondering guy's, with all this uncertainty over the time taken to actually receive visas after making a postal application, has anybody used one of the independent Visa Agencies.....Regards Barney

Just a question for those people who have gone in person to VFS.When you filled out your online application and requested an appointment.When did they give you an appointment for,as we are still in India and don't want to fill it in too early just in case.

Thanks

We asked for an appointment for the Victoria place and were given one at 9 in the morning...there was no choice of date or time...you can cancel if it is not suitable and try again later. I think they give you the next available one when you ask. Appointments start at 8.30 and they come out and call you in first if you have one. Hope this helps a little.

When I did it via Victoria it allowed me to pick the day I wanted - a calendar appeared giving days available, and then I just took a chance on the time. I got 9.30 am, arrived 9 am and was out by 9.05 am.

This new system worked a treat for us filled in the online forms (it took ages) and sent our passports off last monday and we had them back by Friday, so relived as always a bit nervous about posting my passport away but back safe and sound!!

Just wondered if any one knew how far in advance in London, you can book an appointment to obtain your Indian Tourist Visa, I will be taking mine to London and then collecting it, 3 - 4 days later, I have contacted them, they could not answer me, I want to process application on line, and then try and get appointment around 2nd week in November as flying out end of November, also flying out again end of March beginning of April, and was trying not to have to pay for 2 visas,
