yes i totally agree with Satish..people who are on an employment visa which is a temporary visa, however in my case i am an Indian citizen and usually travel within the GCC (Gulf) region for my company's work as my company has an office overseas..so i can't just hand over the passport for more than two weeks..i guess.

i have to think on that afterwards...first let me apply :)

hi ather,

Nope. Nothing yet. Frustrating isn't it? Anyway, it IS the final stretch. I've been patient for the last two years, a few more weeks won't matter.

Yes u r right

Actually i m scared as i have taken leave for 3 weeks bcoz i was not able to get my passport from compnay

until unless i m take vacations

Bcoz i thought it would take max 3 weeks as i read in different forums

But as i saw ur case it seems they wil take longer than my expectations

Anyway we can do only one thing which is wait

Let's hope better

Thanks

Is it true that if a person can get a visit visa to UK and personally hand over the passport for stamping and receive it on the spot or after few hours...
No. This has been answered by Qorax before. Personally dropping passports schedule to London CHC is on a Thursday. Then you can get your passport back with the visa in it 14 days after that. They require one Thursday in between the Thursday when you dropped the passport and the Thursday when you get back your passport.
...Hope I remembered it right...You may confirm this with Qorax.
