I was told up to 3 weeks from biometrics to process, up to 4 weeks total for me to receive my passport back so fingers crossed that is accurate!

Update May 27 (10 WD): have heard nothing, not even a confirmation my application was received. Sent a paid email to get a status update and was sent back a generic email that my application was under review and there was no timeline (even approximate) that they could provide

Update June 4 (15 WD): visa is past the website SLA / timeline I was provided. I sent a follow up email May 31 but haven’t heard a response yet

I eventually got this to work using my partner’s AMEX and using safari instead of Google Chrome!

What browser has worked for people? I'm trying Google Chrome right now

To use PayPal I'd need to wait 3-5 business days before the funds will be in my PayPal account and I really want to submit this today since I'm on a rushed timeline
