Dear Omar,Omar.hr said:Congrats bro, really happy for you.
I swear I was checking this page over and over since the morning cuz I knew yours will come out today. Last night I studied all the cases from everyone here and I noticed a pattern in the time it takes. But I didn't want to get your hopes up too much as I wasn't 100% sure.
Anyways, Please wish me luck as I am the only one left behind from the people who applied back in June
What time did you receive the email by the way?
Can you also please tell me how long it takes for the visa to be actually issued on the passport? do they give you a set date or just tell you we will call you back or something?
This would really help me. Thanks and good luck!
Your words are touching. I received that email in response to a case specific enquiry I made on Sep 06th. It said sorry for the delay in response, we're in a stage where we require your passport to finalise your application. Do not send it to the embassy direct, visit the VAC with this copy and passport so we don't delay the return of your passport. If you don't provide the passport within the due date your application will be withdrawn and you'd have to re apply (funny thing is I have looked very closely but I couldn't find an actual due date. I hope they didn't send this email close to due date, I am really paranoid for the experience I have been through. I feel anything could go against me.)
The time 3:15 pm UAE time which is 15 minutes after the embassy closed. I couldn't go there today because by the time I received this email my VAC was about to close in 45 minutes. I will go there first thing in the morning and enlighten you about what I will be told. I will pray for you lads.
