Tod Daniel’s a massive thank you for all of your sage advice to me and others. So Tod has helped me from application for marriage visa, 12 month extension and re-entry permit processes. And so Monday was 12 month extension stamp day (had decided to leave re-entry permit - to book appointment, rather than long wait).
Wow what a different experience!!! Arrived car park 08:40. We got parked straight away with loads of slots (normally 15-20 minutes or no slots), into immigration ticket 20, up to counter 19 showing but changed immediately. 10 minutes later passport all stamped. My wife suggested we try re-entry permit (as it all seemed much quieter than previous visits) passport copied and 25 minutes later passport stamped and we left - 50 minutes for everything - wow just wow. Thanks to you, Tod and all your support I felt much more comfortable during this whole process. Really appreciate it.
