Hello All, Anyone got Visa recently. I am also still waiting.

Saikiran96

Hey vijay...Why so delay in your visa??   Everyone who got AIP got visa with in 15days what's the reason behind your delay?

Congrats Saikiran.

Hey Saikiran, They asked me for Repeat X Ray and again they asked me for X Ray comparison report that I submitted and waiting for their response. Medical team takes 4 weeks to respond.

Vijay44

@saikiran Did they asked you for repeat X Ray? It seems they are asking once we complete all your AIP action like paying fees, opening account, revised offer letter, etc.

I'm new to this forum!
I have applied for Student visa on 27  March and no response yet and when I checked with the immigration they said awiting allocation to a case officer! Does this means that they have not started processing my application?

Hello guys I am new in this forum. I applied for my student Visa on 16th January and date of lodgement was 18th January, already missed my may intake and last month 14th of May my agent told me that currently the embassy is working on the application made on the first week of January .

Rochelle22

one of the guys who applied with my agent three days after me that is may 18th  has got his AIP last week. So I don't think they're going According to lodgement dates either

Tushar235

agents have new stories everyday

dpriyam

Whenever I call my agent or send them emails they say that be patience but don't contact the embassy much as it might get you into trouble

Tushar235

Rubbish! Why’d they let us make a query if something like that would happen

Saikiran96
