The visa wait

Feel free to use this thread to let off a bit of steam whilst waiting for your visa! Sometimes it feels good to have a rant....

So here goes.......



I am so bored of waiting. Frustrated that e-lodged post Sept 07 are only up to November, am getting annoyed at the slow process of it all. Moan moan moan!



Thanks for that - feel slightly better now

Hoping too that you'll get a CO soon!


Thanks everyone - I needed to open the thread just to let out some frustration lol! Feeling better today though! Some days it just gets to you - and I can only hope for all those who have been waiting twice as long as me (and more) I'm wishing that you'll get your good news soon

Good little moan that one! Nice one Helen! Hope you feel a bit better now

IKWYM! You run around like a headless chicken, getting this signed, getting that certified, writing out this cheque and that cheque! Then - SILENCE.

Good luck with your application
