Issa compass. I don't recommend this company's service. I uploaded all the documents they requested. They approved it all, then i paid in 8 jan. They kept delaying the application by asking some stupid and repetitive questions that's i answered before. They started the application in 13 jan. Now it is 28 jan (more than 2 weeks). i sent them a message in 27 jan, they said that the embassy didn't replied yet. In 28 jan i sent them again telling them that i have a flight in 31 jan, and i need to extend my visa here in bali. They replied that the embassy told them to upload all pages of my passport (even if it's blank) and the same with my old passport which i don't have. I will keep you updated what will happen next.
As a United States passport holder with driver's licenses from Arizona and Georgia, I receive the majority of my US mail at a Georgia address. I am inquiring whether I can submit an application through the Los Angeles consulate, where the estimated processing time is approximately three days, or if I must apply through the Washington, D.C. embassy, which has an estimated processing time of three to four weeks.
Hi , I applied for a DTV visa through the London Embassy last week via the soft power route. The next day the embassy responded asking for my booked flight confirmation. I booked a flight dated the 31/10/25 and uploaded the confirmation to the e visa site. The next day the status of my application changed to processing pending approval. It has now been a week since the last update and the status of my application has remained the same. Do the embassy wait until it's close to your flight date before issuing the visa?
I'm new here. On September 16th 2025, I applied for a Non Immigrant Business (B) Visa, to attend and present at a conference in BKK. Till date, my application is stuck at Pending Approval. Any idea what could be the cause of the delay?
Viet Nam seems to reject Chinese's application for DTV, and there is no successful case.May I ask who has successfully applied for a DTV visa in Vietnam with a China passport in the past three months?
I applied to the Jakarta Embassy on Monday, September 1st, but as of today (September 6th), the status is still showing as “Pending Document Check.” Is this normal? DTV Soft power
Hi! Just wondering if the authorities have started to make it a little bit easier ( less onerous) when applying for a METV? I applied on Monday night, just before midnight, UK time. Previously I seem to remember having to complete lots of boxes/info etc but this time round it really was quite a simple process. I gave my flight details,address, bank statement and proof of address. I said I wanted to stay for 60 days ( following advice online). Nothing else was asked from me. No return flight etc. I paid £150.00 and fully expected to be asked for further details. But nothing else was asked. I was actually expecting to just get a SETV. Imagine my surprise/ delight/shock when I received my METV yesterday evening! Absolutely blown away by the service. Can't wait to fly out in 2 weeks time. 🙏🎉
