hi... Penang referenced my METV number. I applied for the METV in London. How did Penang know the number? They know more than we think 😉

Good point. I could just leave my application pending and wait. Nothing to lose but waiting. Best case it's approved after the 10th, or I have to apply again.

Thanks all for your help. Perhaps I'm just unlucky with Penang. Even if I waited for the final days before I applied, the visa would've still been valid. Surely I'm not the first person to have a valid visa while applying for the next one. Was I supposed to wait until the last day on the visa, fly out, and then apply for the DTV the next day? I've not read anyone here having to do that before - seems very strange.

@David *******

how could I have cancelled before I left? How is that done? If I cancelled before I left then I'm in the country without a valid visa.

January 10. Sounds like I have to wait. I will message Tod for help. Thank you.
