Hey buddy, I have one of the friend with his VO as Warsaw. After third line update, it took just 10 days for Decision Made. It is moving quite fast these days as compared to NDVO. All the best!!

The biggest challenge is with the Individuals running the show at VFS. I heard about those reports and i did ask the guy at VFS, Hyderabad

Couple of the employees at VFS, Hyderabad were really helpful but the guy we had to deal with was adamant for authorization letter.

The experience seems a bit inconsistent that's what makes it difficult

[Heck]

Thanks for replying!

Gonna apply for Student Visa. I was trying to run from it because there's too much bureaucracy to go through... again! Btw, my course is Library & Information Technician in Seneca College.

Actually, I'm renewing my Work Visa here, so I won't have my passport for the next 2 weeks. Perhaps, till then I get MR ;D

Thanks and good luck!

- Apply for Student Visa definitely..It'd give u peace of mind...

- I'd recommend doing Upfront Meds but not sending any docs to HKVO before they request u....Ur docs may take time to be linked up with ur file and it may even result in a pushing back of the Due Date/ and in some rare cases docs might get misplaced also....Don't send any docs beforehand...RPRF Payment in any case takes minutes.....Keep in mind, by doing Upfront Meds, ur Visa wud be valid only till the Meds done date (i.e. when the Hopital uploads the docs to the VO) so it mite reduce ur time for landing but that shud not be an issue since ur already going to college ...Which college and which course btw?
