Dear Friends,
I applied for visa on the 4th of June at VFS, Hyderabad. My paper based visa application reached New Delhi on the 5th of June and I got my visa approved on the 12th of June.
Thanks to all who helped answering my questions.
I did the entire processing right from applying to the college till visa processing all by myself. I was definitely lost at times but I am glad that things worked out well by the grace of God. I would like to encourage new students as well as friends who have visa rejections to not give up hope. Keep trying guys.
There were times when I did talk to people in this forum and I did not really get the complete information that was required. Probably because they had to pay to the consultants and I was trying to get bits of those paid information...
For whatever reason, no regret guys.
So, here is the thing. All those who want to apply for visa and do not want to go through consultant can count on me as a free consultant... ;D Happy to help...
I applied under General Category because I was a little apprehensive with the gap in my education, as I hold 7 years of work experience.
Here is the detailed list of documents that I submitted and the link I followed to file my visa application. I really hope it helps! 8)
