Chloe Emerson Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 Oh come on already! Visa please. It is 9 months tomorrow. I bet it's driving you mad. Strange how some people have been getting grants early and then others are waiting the full 9 months Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jen14 Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 Hey Chloe! I have no idea. However, i did apply from Turkey. Like everyone else i was told the wait was strictly 9-12 months. I dont know if applying online helped. I guess its up to how fast the case managers work. And, also the extra prayers I made Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wozziegirl Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Oh come on already! Visa please. It is 9 months tomorrow. I'm about to head into London and will be going past Oz House. I'll have the megaphone handy and yell out to give your Hubby his visa TODAY! Technically you're now into the 10th month... Hubby and I really hope today is a good day for all of you who are at or nearing the 9 month mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheTipper Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Good luck, TheEscapePlan. We opened the windows and had a good roar at them for you as we passed Oz House about an hour ago! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wozziegirl Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Yay! Thanks guys! I hope it helps! Having to stop at the traffic lights right at the door to Oz House meant we got to yell it over and over and over! We yelled our way around the whole building for you! It's making me giggle just thinking how mad we must've looked to those walking by. :-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheEscapePlan Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Well, no joy there. Apparently it is being 'finalised' and will be granted very shortly - some time in the next month. FFS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTipper Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Well, no joy there. Apparently it is being 'finalised' and will be granted very shortly - some time in the next month. FFS! That's exasperating! If, when you received the grant, it was on parchment made by stitching individual butterfly wings together, written with individually hand-carved letters made by the finest Swiss jewellers I could maybe understand why they take so long. It's incredible that it takes longer to make a visa grant than it takes to make a whole new human being. I wonder what it is they still have to do that they haven't managed to fit in to the 9 months they've had so far? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NaomiSimone Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Yayy!! My visa just came through!!

NaomiSimone Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Congratulations!! How long did it take to get the grant? Just under 9 months (8 months 25 days)...seems like grants are being given a lot closer to 9 months at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BecWortho Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Congrats NaomiSimone!! You must be so excited! TheEscapePlan and Sandyp you must be so frustrated!! 9 moths your application has been sitting in a pile what more could they need to do!! On the plus side though atleast you know the grant is coming so you can rest easy and start planning your trip, so far as even booking flights?? I would!! Get outta here before the winter sets in!!!
