Re: Life with WAPOL anyone?

I am one of the last to get their visa from those that went to London last year.
We all submitted them late Feb and they started coming back in April and most people had had theirs by the end of May

Re: Question about visa application

It costs a lot but I think you can do it more cheaply if you need to.
