    @thegreatgypsy congrats

    "IF YOU ASK ANYTHING IN MY NAME, I WILL DO IT".

    John 14:14

    Loving Lord!The Scripture says that You are aware of all our needs, even before we ask You. So I come to You and place this request at Your loving hands.You know how desperate I am for getting the Visa. My soul has become weary and anxious over this delay in getting the visa .O Lord! Speak in the hearts of the concerned officials, grant me favour in their eyes and help me to get my visa on time so that my purpose is fulfilled. Perfect everything for me my Master. I wait at Your feet and trust in You to make this possible. I know that You will do it for You will never let Your children down. I thank You for listening to my plea! To You alone be all honour and glory. In the sweet name of Jesus I pray.Amen.

    Hi po, I've been reading through this forum for quite some time now. I've decided to register na and release my anxiety here. I'm so nervous po on what might be the outcome of my visa application. My agent already lodged the visa application last October 8, kaya lang po hindi pa rin po ako nakakareceive ng confirmation email from the embassy until now. Napansin ko po kasi ilang days lang nakakatanggap na yung iba nga acknowledgement email from the embassy. Huhu kinakabahan tuloy ako.

    @louiselaaane Please give us the complete timeline para mabigyan ka namin ng guidance. I always believe na na-acknowledge yon agad ng embassy. Siguro kung Friday mo nilodge, Monday sya na sya ma-acknowledge but Thursday ata ang Oct 8. Ask your agent baka sila ang correspondence. Ang IDP kasi binigay sakin 4 days na pero ang nakalagay sa acknowledgement letter ay date after ni-lodge ng agency.

    @louiselaaane September ka pa nagbigay then October 8 nag lodge? E-Mail IDP or ask your CO. Baka na-acknowledge na yan di lang na-forward sayo. Call Laine or Edel. Di yan dadaan sayo because IDP is the one representing you to receive all the decisions from embassy. You must be aggressive in follow ups kasi maraming students ang IDP so baka di nila matutukan ang case individually :) PM mo, if you want to release your anxiety, kwentuhan tayo :)
