Hey all,
So, we applied for my boyfriend’s visitor visa on April 4th. He is from Colombia, so we understood the chances are lower, but we put together what we felt was strong and we were confident. We did our best to prove everything and we hoped for the best but had realistic expectations as well.
So, April 21st, he did his biometrics. That was updated.
And now radio silence.
Even the tracker that is supposed to give an estimated date has not been adjusted.
And now, we should have applied earlier for his mid-June visit. We planned to apply in February, but I was dealing with a lot. A death in my family. So, my mindset was gone.
In mid-Marchish we put everything together.
However, the processing time showed about 32 days or so for Colombia, so we had hopes but understood we maybe have cut it close.
Anyways, I am asking today if his travel dates we stated have passed. It was for a potential June 21st date for 2 weeks to my city. His vacation is finished so he wouldn’t be coming this year now.
What do we do with his visitor visa?
Is there still a chance they would approve of it even though his travel dates have passed?
Do we just wait for an answer now?
We of course would like to order the notes if it is denied. Just to know how to adjust so if we decide to apply again for his vacation next year. We will apply a lot earlier. But that is why I am kind of wishing they would just give an answer haha I know that what I wish is different than reality.
I just want to give us time to strengthen things as needed.
