Frequent flyer o…..maybe the person should try Italy
Restaurant92:
Please did you apply with the frequent traveler option? Or 1st timer.

Hello guys, can someone please advise on frequent traveler processing period of recent?
I have a frequent traveler that wants to renew, but concerned about the passport being held for too long as there's another intended trip for month end.

At all o. Submitted for my wife and other family members in a group application on the 25th of february, and nothing yet till now.
ujdomklo997:
This place is unusually quiet... anybody else submitted in Lagos ending of February and yet to get theirs? submitted on Feb 27, yet to hear from them
TravelRe: Securing Visa To France, Applying From Nigeria... by yp1files: 4:00pm On Mar 27
Has anyone who submitted late february gotten any response ?
TravelRe: Securing Visa To France, Applying From Nigeria... by yp1files: 9:08am On Nov 20, 2025
Did you create an itinerary as a separate document ?

chikajulietleo:
Yes all 3 was France. This started in August after my last visa expired. I reapplied with my 2 kids and mum as a group application. Wanted to take them to Disney land. Everything was ok. I submitted all my documents complete and had the money to sponsor all 4 of us. It came back and they denied all 4 of us. I felt so bad. Now I decided to reapply alone and spend part of my Christmas in Paris. I applied alone this time with everything intact. I was so shocked when it came back yesterday again denied. I honestly haven’t felt bad about a visa denial like I did yesterday. Tears came out. lol

quote author=Dejoks post=137531773]
Are the previous 3 visas France visas or other countries visa?
TravelRe: Securing Visa To France, Applying From Nigeria... by yp1files: 9:05am On Nov 20, 2025
Appeal is not done via email, its hard copy you send via courier to the consulate.

chikajulietleo:
Please do you have the email or address I can send this to?


Thank you so much.
TravelRe: Securing Visa To France, Applying From Nigeria... by yp1files: 10:41pm On Nov 19, 2025
Sorry about that. You can send an appeal..tho that one is 50/50 but its free. You send a letter to the embassy explaining your situation and why you feel you do not deserve to be denied. Attach the photocopy of your data page in the package, if they review and are convinced, they will email you to go drop your passport at VFS and other procedures.

chikajulietleo:
No o
I have had 3 successful visas. 2 last year and one this year.
TravelRe: Securing Visa To France, Applying From Nigeria... by yp1files: 3:16pm On Nov 19, 2025
For instance, you dont need VFS appointment for Sweden, you just go to VFS with your documents and pay.
TravelRe: Securing Visa To France, Applying From Nigeria... by yp1files: 3:12pm On Nov 19, 2025
Yes, you can do it for another country.

Cityview12:
Thank you so much for the response. I guess I will try for another country, so the appointment system isn't the same for all EU countries through VFS but only specific to the country being applied for. For example, if there's an appointment backlog with Switzerland, can there be an appointment date available with France?
TravelRe: Securing Visa To France, Applying From Nigeria... by yp1files: 9:36am On Nov 19, 2025
There is pressure on schenghen countries for now. I guess its also because they are switching their entry processes. If you cant find for switzerland, maybe you should still try for france...tho be ready to wait for at least 30 days to get a reply.

Cityview12:
Hello everyone, Please, I need your experienced help.

I am applying for a Switzerland visa and I got to know there is no VFS appointment date in the next few months.

Please, how does this get handled? Does the date slot open up intermittently just like the US appointments, or is there any specific way to go about securing an appointment?

Your experienced responses are appreciated.

TravelRe: Securing Visa To France, Applying From Nigeria... by yp1files: 6:09pm On Nov 13, 2025
They didnt give me when I went to the consulate, they said they were going to send it via TLS which was eventually done today. I submitted on the 8th of october.

Congratulations, when did you submit ?

Obadnego:
I just got an email from TLS that my passports is ready for collection but not with my daughter passports, while her applications is still in process.

Can someone advise me on what to do please!?
TravelRe: Securing Visa To France, Applying From Nigeria... by yp1files: 9:41am On Nov 11, 2025
Its better than having my passport there without being able to travel for other things. I will apply via Belgium or another embassy that has better time processing.
Obadnego:
You shouldn't have gone to the embassy cos with this now,they'll return your passports empty without visa,
