Thai G/f Got Visa After 2 Days.

[Eastender]

I feel guilty posting this knowing that so many deserving people have waited so long for their visa.

But, my Thai g/f went to British embassy alone (I'm in UK). She took letter from me, proof of my mortgage and job, (but no bank statements). She told them she wanted a 2 week holiday in UK with a friend. She had told them we were friends not lovers, only because she was still legally married from a previous husband. Althought I thought this would count against her??

Of course, we expected to wait 2 months minimum, and probably get refused.

However they asked her to come back the next day with photos of us together and a copy of our emails (nosy bastards). To our surprise she was then given a visa, but told if she stayed in the UK any more than the 15 days she had asked for she would be in trouble, (I think the visa was for 160 days?).

So if all your after is a quick holiday it can be relatively painless, (apart from the queus at the Embassy).

Good luck.

I've just read Big Spuds post below and thought I should add;

Another possibly helpful factor was that the boss of her company had writen a letter granting her 2 weeks off work and stating she'd have a job to go back to.
