Hi All,

I submitted my passport yesterday after RFV, I'm a pilot, and the Vfs agent advised me to attach my flying schedule so the embassy prioritizes my stamping.
Today i received the sms and also Vfs called me saying that my passport is ready for collection tmrw...
Can the embassy really stamp in 1 day ? Or perhaps returned due to a mistake in pics or something else?
Thanks..

It could be the second but for the first question it depends on what type of visa.

But at the same time it can happen, it's just that if your visa is a PR visa I highly doubt it takes only one day. I have been waiting for 36 days now.

Yes its a PR visa, according to the Vfs agent if pilots attach their schedule, the embassy tends to prioritize their application.
I asked the one who called me how come they stamped in 1 day, she replied because my case was urgent, idk how she knew and i forgot to ask, but my guess is that it could be labeled as urgent ?? Idk im just concerned. Will collect today and find out.
