Hi

Just wondering is there anyone who also applied online from VFS London in June for study permit and got decision?

I am Pakistani national, applied from Sweden, online application on 12 June

Completed biometrics on 21st June from Germany

Since then my status says that my application is under process

I understand that London processing times is 4 weeks and it has crossed 5 weeks now. This is surprising that Indian Visa offices are processing the applications faster than London office.

Is there anyone else here who has the same scenario? :(

Best Regards
EXD

Iam a pakistani applied from VFS London 12th July. The decision should be processed within 2 weeks as stated on the website.

What does your status say online?

One of my Chinese friends was granted the visa within 3 weeks time.

Now theyve changed the processing time to 2 weeks in London High Commission
