My new UK passport just been approved. Did it myself as VFS in Chiang Mai is literally 5 minutes from where I live. If I was not close to an office would definately use Agent again as I did last time.

I had a bit of a mess around. VFS sent off to Passport office 12th November. 19th November payment taken by HMPO. 26th November passport office asked for more proof of address even though VFS had checked all documents. I sent those off by EMS 27th. Email from HMPO saying passport approved even before those extra docs would have arrived in the UK (3 emails asking for extra docs while they were in transit) 🙂 Mai pen rai

@Ying ****

Good luck. Hope it goes well.

@Sam ********

Oh look. A man with room temperature IQ has stopped licking windows to respond. 555

@Fa**

Mistakes happen. As a visa expert you really do not know how immigrstion systems and passports work - have you ever travelled?? 5

Do you really think visas and passports are not linked?

@Marcus ******

Hahaha.

Looks like you need to wait until the METV expires.

Yes, proof of 500k required for 30 days before application. These were part of guidelines sent out by Immigration HQ to local offices just prior to the first 6 months of DTV in place.
