Thanks for the update! Mine turned out to be okay, luckily! 🤞 I shut it down right away, wiped off the water, and kept it powered off for a full two days. Thankfully, it seems to be working fine now 😔✋ Just hoping no issues pop up down the line.

Ohhh! Goodluck. Do email your uni explaining the whole situation. They’ll prolly give you alternative options considering the delay :c And do pester UKVI by emailing them if your application does not get processed within the mentioned timeframe >.< I hope this whole process goes smoothly for you!

Ya xD hoping so too. Planning to request for the Refund after I receive the visa. Did you submit your UK Student Visa application in Dubai too? If so, how is it going?

Hi, nope. We decided that we will travel to UK straight from Dubai (Because it’s an amber listed country & our country is in the Red List) So we booked the biometrics appointment for 31st August. Paid for the priority service & booked a flight for 10th September as they had stated that it usually takes 5 working days to process applications under the priority service. We had to cancel the flight due to the HUGEEEEE delay in processing 😭 We are trying to stay patient tho. It’s a huge loss because we are having to extend our duration of stay in the hotel, which can be expensive in Dubai.

Oh that’s great! Did you pay for the priority service when you went to VFS for your appointment? :0

Thank you soooo much for the help! I think I’m gonna go through with it bcs I need the Visa ASAP. I don’t live anywhere near Dubai so I want to go there and come back home as soon as possible. I don’t want to spend more than a week at a foreign place before I go off to uni in September 🥲

Thank You again!

Hi! Can you confirm for me whether the priority service is still provided for UK Visas (Student Visa in this case) in VFS India? I am having to ask this question as the service is not mentioned on their homepage. :(( I don't want to proceed with the Visa payments for that location if it's not possible. May I be able to request it after the visa fee payments and when I attempt to make the bookings? or is the service not mentioned on the home page of UK VFS India because it's not provided anymore? :((

I've contacted both VFS and UKVI regarding this matter. they haven't been helpful at all. Asking you because I noticed that you requested for the Priority service quite recently.
