Guidance for Travel Dates

[ks21]

Hello
I wanted to apply for Visitor Visa for June 21- July 2 from India. Prior to the strike, the processing time was 18 days. I'll apply latest by 1st or 2nd of May. So I would have about 45 days. Are my travel dates too close by? Does it affect my case adversely? In case I do not get my visa by my travel date, I plan to raise a webform and update my travel dates to October 19-29 ( as my next vacation is then) along with a new Invitation Letter, NOC etc. That would not have an adverse impact, would it?

Or shall I directly apply for October only? However, given it is almost 6 months away, I was not too keen for it.

Kindly suggest.

Thank You

Posted processing times are just estimates and can either be shorter or much longer so I would apply asap. You shouldn’t purchase any tickets until you know you have approval so you can always alter your dates if processing time is much longer.

Hey Thank you for the response.

So I can alter my dates even after submitting the application, right?
