Anyone know how much longer after submitting requested docs it takes to get approved? I submitted requested docs Friday, yet still on pending document check… I applied at HCMC consulate

Did anyone apply for a Muay Thai EFC - DTV in Ho Chi Minh City Vietnam and can tell me how long it took for a response? I applied Sep, Monday 15th. Still here

Hi All, Just want to find out has anyone applied 1 week prior to the three months being up to have the 500 000 bht in your account this is for me to be there end November rather than December? Has your visa been rejected or should I wait the full term? Thank you in advance. Applying from. South Africa

I'm interested in the freelance and wondering about the timeline for application to approval for purchase of airline tickets? I know it will be different for all embassies but what is the range or the longest someone has waited for an approval? I would be applying from Europe. TYIA

Anyone approved in HCMC yesterday/today? When did you apply?

I feel like I’ve been “process pending approval “ for ages now.

Thank you!

Any approval from Philippines today or recently? Status still pending after a week. Feeling a bit anxious now.

Visa Approved! I would have not been able to get my visa approved without the help of this group and the thorough details from some of these postings. Thank you!

Applied for Visa on June 9th

Asked to share more documents on June 17th

Sent the requested documents on the 20th

Approved on July 2nd.

Good luck to everyone and please let me know if you have any questions. I would like to pay it forward 🙏🏾🤞🏾🫵🏾

A quick note to the group to say thanks for the advice and for answering my silly questions. My wife got her non-immigrant OA visa yesterday and I got mine this morning, 15 hours before our flight and 6 hours before we would have had to make a lot of changes to our reservations. Anyway, it was a struggle at times but we got there in the end and are on our way in 5 hours. Thanks again 🙏

Update [Approved 30th June]

Has anyone ever got your approval email on Friday midnight or weekends in Hanoi? I am just curious if I can still hope on weekends.
