If you have a a Visa that looks like a bus ticket glued in your passport...then just come through immigration.
If there is anyone with you, and you are the main applicant - then make sure you go through first.
Enjoy your Validation ...where are you coming to?

Hi all.
What happens if the main applicant is not the first one through. We validated recently and we just gave in all 4 passports at the same time as we always have wherever we go.
Cannot see it makes much difference but I have heard about this before - cheers James

The applicant has to go first, on their own, OR with the rest of the family, NOT at a later date.

If you all go at the same time that's fine - they'll take all the passports and just enter the applicant first into the system. The problem arises if part of the family want to go without the main applicant, maybe with the applicant intending to follow later.
