- the few applicants I have see were giving 15 day extensions, so that Immigration could then review the documents and supply decision. So there is a chance you pay, get a short extension while they decide and then learn the results in 2 weeks
There have been several posts like this over the last 9 months, but very very few. One applicant was asked to show their experience with Muy Thai, etc. I wonder, is this an embassy specific request. Which embassy you applying via?
