Hey every thank God for me o! I got my visa yesterday against 14th of October deadline and the visa was already issued on the 6th .if anyone is waiting for alert pls don't wait coz they never alerted or upgraded the status online i went to the bdhc in V.I and i was told to go pick up my visa @ the vfs centre.

Congrats man, weve got the same story man.

I am so happy to let the house know, i got my visa yesterday, God willing i should be traveling today, thanks for all the support and encouragement, and those who are still waiting for theirs, I would not advice you to wait for an alert or a status change, because i didn't get mine, infact my visa was issued on the 5th of october nd must have arrived at the VAC 2 days later, I think what they try to do is wait out the 15 days as per due process.

@shekoyeyi i also applied on the 21st of september though my deadline is on the 14th i pray to God we get it this week keep praying only God can do it

I submitted on the 22nd of sept, soo depending on where ur expecting to pick up yours might walk past you tomorrow . God's grace.

@justwise, probably nothing, but all my friends that have gotten their visas already, seem to have gotten it on fridays, is this a pattern or a just plain O'l coincidence?

this is just a hunch, but i think those who applied on the 23rd or earlier are getting theirs this friday, (includes me) , can't wait to see the rush at the airport on sat and on sunday,lmaof, I wish everyone luck though, and I mean everyone.

justwise:

Your chances of making it for 10th of Oct is high if the ECO did not punish u for submitting late.

wait! they actually punish people for submitting late , so did not know that

and again, wot is turnaround time frame so far since the last security review since the UN bombing, because there was a backlog and people weren't getting replies until like 3+weeks later, sorry i inserted the wrong quote.

Good idea, why not open a thread for that?

here is my situation, house! paid my tuition in full (£10250) to the school with proof of receipt, maintenance of £5400 in my account in my own name, that all sounds goods except that i applied on the 22nd of sept with resumption on the 26th, but the saving grace is i have got till the 10th to register, how good are my chances of getting a reply before then, FYI i am a progression student not a fresh applicant, any contribution will be much appreciated, and please skip on asking me why i am applying so late cause its a long story you prolly dont want to hear, thanks
