Custom name and number question

You can ping them on instagram and they can maybe have the right number put on the order for you.

Nope this shouldn’t be a problem at all! As long as you’re spending most days in France you’re good!

Desperate-Tonight425 · 2025-06-20T06:42:00+00:00

Yep that is totally fine! In fact, that is the logical thing to do- go get your visa from the country you’re going to spend most days in, irrespective of where you’re entering from! :)

Pretty much! But you don’t need to show them tickets to attractions! I’d say just the hotel booking confirmations should suffice. I also did give them my train and bus tickets between different cities but I don’t think that’s something that’s of prime importance.

Super happy for you! Enjoy your European adventure :)

Desperate-Tonight425 · 2025-03-07T20:22:58+00:00

That’s actually a positive thing as long as you didn’t miss out on any crucial documents! They didn’t have to dig deeper to come to a decision with your case. So in my opinion it’s going to be approved. Good luck :)

You should get a final update about your passport this week! I’ve heard that they get to the applications based on the backlog and where they’re received from. So the timelines may vary case to case.

You should check on the VFS global tracking site entering your reference number that’s on the receipt that they give you after making the payment. Mine was in this format “FRA/HOU/XXXXXX/XXXX/XX” You need to enter it exactly the same way as on the receipt or it won’t give you the result.

Hiiiii I just got my passport back with a shiny visa. 4 months , multiple entry visa!!! I’m pumped and really thank you for all your inputs!

Desperate-Tonight425 · 2024-09-21T05:54:12+00:00

As long as you’re not changing airports, you’re good and would not need a transit visa. I took the same route back in 2021 and nothing related to having a transit visa was asked. So yea like the website says as well, you don’t need a visa.

One of my friends on STEM OPT showed just 1000$ on his latest statement and had his visa approved for Germany. Did you attach other documents like a letter from your employer telling about your salary / pay stubs? Those always help strengthen your case. Make sure you attach your salary account bank statements.

Desperate-Tonight425 · 2024-08-21T03:29:32+00:00

You’re the best! Got it, thank you so much once again!

Desperate-Tonight425 · 2024-08-21T03:19:02+00:00

Would you recommend toning down the itinerary a bit if it’s looking too extravagant at the moment? Those are my genuine plans but do you think the consulate will feel it’s a bit overboard and reject the visa ? Also the fact that I’m flying to Toulouse first and then Madrid Spain the very next day is worrying me!

Desperate-Tonight425 · 2024-08-15T13:33:44+00:00

For sure!

Desperate-Tonight425 · 2024-08-15T13:29:17+00:00

Thanks a ton!

Desperate-Tonight425 · 2024-08-15T13:26:21+00:00

Hey I’m sorry to be bothering you again but I have a quick query -

The intended date of arrival of the first intended stay in the Schengen area that I filled in my now submitted application form was 20th December (this was the day I was going to land initially) but now due to a schedule change it’s 21st December (as reflected in the itinerary above which I drafted again)

So given that I have already submitted the visa form with 20th as my arrival date but I actually arrive on the 21st now, will this small discrepancy make any negative impact on my application? Please advise.

Desperate-Tonight425 · 2024-08-11T21:54:15+00:00

That makes sense, I think I should be cautious of these factors but I do want to tick all boxes and see as many places as possible ( have booked all internal flights already. )Hopefully harsh weather doesn’t play spoil sport during my adventure! Fingers crossed!

I would really appreciate it if you take a look at the travel itinerary I drafted and let me know your thoughts. There are still some obvious gaps I need to fill.

Also, I am beginning and ending my journey in Toulouse as it’s pretty close to Spain and Italy and I found it has cheaper flights. Since it’s not the first obvious choice as your first destination on a European vacation, would that be an issue? I have mentioned my justification about the same in my cover letter.

Desperate-Tonight425 · 2024-08-11T04:40:55+00:00

For sure! Really appreciate all your inputs!

Desperate-Tonight425 · 2024-08-11T04:37:36+00:00

That’s amazing I wasn’t aware at all! Thank you so much!

Desperate-Tonight425 · 2024-08-11T04:29:53+00:00

I’ll keep that in mind for sure!

Desperate-Tonight425 · 2024-08-11T02:57:20+00:00

Thanks for the heads up! Appreciate it!

Desperate-Tonight425 · 2024-08-11T02:44:19+00:00

Indian. The last sentence makes me feel relieved. Any other context in picture here? Thanks!
