Applied Hanoi on soft power 

2nd February applied and paid

4th February changed to pending approval 

6th February emailed my approved visa 

Dependent applied X2

6th February PM - after hours 

9th February 3PM - requested more documents, my fault as sent a wrong page so sent correct documents straight away

Great that it was a quick and painless process. Would you mind sharing the soft power activity you applied on? And the school you went through. I'm assuming you just uploaded all the documents yourself?
