Hi briley,

excellent service, sounds promising. What are the time scales on sending documents and visa applications? Anyone had experiences? My friend states that for anothe rfriends visa they were brillliant alround. Sent the documents off and a visa was returned. So if the passport documents for my child are put in at CM Embassy does that mean the passport has to be picked up there or will it be posted?

However alot of people I know used a visa shop in CM.

Thanks all
