Just out of curiosity what is the 'perfect applicant' for (any) "partner' visa ?

I have seen anything from 2 weeks to 4 months processing time frames for these visas.

I have seen posts of visa applicants getting visas in the range of 2 to 4 weeks-

BUT they never say HOW this was ACHIEVED !!!!

SO they have "the perfect application" ?

Which is (theoretically) BOTH SAME AGES, YEARS LIVING TOGETHER, A SPONSOR WITH LOTS OF MONEY, EVERYTHING THE CASE OFFICER WANTS RATHER THAN NEEDS, AND A LOT OF LUCK....

So DO YOU KNOW.... ????

If it is anything like the British embassy, and I suspect that it is, then processing times depend on demand.

The more applications in front of you in the queue, the longer you have to wait.

To acheive a fast turnaround one needs to apply at a quiet time. When is a quiet time? Your guess is as good as mine!
