Hi,

I hope someone has had the same issue we are facing so we can get some guidance on what to do next. Me and my family received our D7 visas today, yay! We are so happy but along with our visas we received AIMA appointments for each of us individually. The problem is my two children aged 2 & 6 have their AIMA appointment at a different location to us but at the same time as ours, I thought as we are a family we would have one AIMA appointment together. Does anyone know how we can rectify this?

We had appointments in Gorda (far North) & Lisbon (1 month apart). When we went to Gorda they wouldn't take us both together even though we went together and there wasn't anyone else waiting. I'd guess you'd have no issues with the kids, or shouldn't that would be silly. Hopefully having your kids with you will help.

Thanks for the responses, I am hoping they will take us with the kids, as my Partner and I have the same location for our appointment. I guess we can just explain the confusion to them.
