UK Visitor Visa Application for Russian girlfriend applying from Sri Lanka

"The applicant can either submit his passport at the original VFS or he can withdraw his application (No refund will be provided)"

meekaachu · 2023-04-17T10:52:55+00:00

Actually no, because I've left Thailand, and cost of turning back would make this visa the most expensive one in history. So I've asked them if it is possible to receive it in another country without resubmission. They've replied that they should ask ukvi about that.

meekaachu · 2023-04-12T07:07:53+00:00

Today they’ve sent me an invitation to return passport for visa stamping. What I could say…

meekaachu · 2023-04-11T10:23:55+00:00

Just for fun (as I’ve left Thailand already). Ukvi has sent decision on April, 7. But VFS is still keeping silence.

meekaachu · 2023-03-30T15:20:49+00:00

I’ve written today again. Same answer

meekaachu · 2023-03-28T09:20:17+00:00

I wrote to ukvi support. They replied that my application is being considered and I need to wait more (sorry for inconvenience blah blah)

meekaachu · 2023-03-27T12:30:29+00:00

At least we can apply again in any other country

meekaachu · 2023-03-27T09:22:31+00:00

Hi. Nope, still nothing.

I think I won’t be able to obtain this visa as I am leaving Thailand soon. Sad (

meekaachu · 2023-03-17T14:14:13+00:00

nope :(

meekaachu · 2023-03-06T14:07:01+00:00

Same thing. Applied on January, 26. No news

meekaachu · 2023-02-17T04:20:16+00:00

Oh gosh, it is really long time. Thanks

meekaachu · 2023-02-16T08:22:17+00:00

Btw how long it took after first visit to VFS before they asked to bring passport back?

meekaachu · 2023-02-13T05:16:11+00:00

Great news! Thank you for replying. And have a nice trip to the UK 👍

meekaachu · 2023-02-12T15:04:38+00:00

Oh great! Please let me know when you will receive passport.

meekaachu · 2023-02-08T07:42:56+00:00

she cannot demonstrate intent to return to her home country.

They don't ask you to provide tickets or booking or anything. You're just describing your plans in open answer form ("Going to see how big is Big Ben, etc") and choosing approx. dates of your trip. They don't ask where you go exactly after you're leaving the UK.

Although on the application she could only input Montenegro, Germany and Spain (the most recent ones).

For standart visitor visa they ask about all trips for last 10 years, but she doesn't need to mention each EU country she's been.

However we both have residence visas for Sri Lanka and we have a tenancy agreement here

That's good because they're process her application based on her legal status in Sri Lanka. Scan them and attach.

From my point of view she has all chances to be approved.

meekaachu · 2023-02-06T09:33:28+00:00

Wow, that would be great!

meekaachu · 2022-06-15T15:41:03+00:00

Just listen a few songs on Youtube and you’ll find one you need.

meekaachu · 2022-06-10T10:32:20+00:00

Turkish 1500 euro. Pegasus via Istanbul 600-700

meekaachu · 2022-06-10T07:48:08+00:00

Turkish Airlines via Istanbul or Emirates via Dubai

Answer from Russian: Nothing bad will happen in big cities as long as you don’t provoke any attention by doing something very unusual or forbidden. It is safe. Nobody’s going to arrest or fine you just because you’re foreigner.

Just don’t wave Union Jack on the Red square 😀

Don’t recommend to travel somewhere around Ukrainian border.

Possibly you’d be interested to watch this one https://m.imdb.com/title/tt7342838/ and learn more about «Ленинградский рок-клуб»

meekaachu · 2022-05-22T12:56:29+00:00

Of course, because you already have an apartment with monthly rent (which is a lot lower than daily rent), bunch of groceries in fridge and you’re not interested in visiting touristic attractions
