1)can i know what should i wear when i go to apply for my student visa?
2)when i arrive at the wisma mca,what should i do?what i mean is like take number then go 4th floor?or straight go 4th floor etc.?
3)what time they start to let us in n apply for visa?
4)if i don't want to wait until afternoon to finish applying student visa,should i go there really very early in the morning like 6am to queue up?
thanks for answering the questions.really appreciate it.

the BHC once told me that they will be updating the status page daily, so its best to check there every morning and night if u r in a rush... if u just cant stand checking only then opt for text notification, of course with some fees applied ... do keep in mind, last few weeks was the peak time, application process may take up to 9 or 10 days ...

usual office closing hrs, but i rmb that someone mention he was able to submit past 6pm, so maybe the vfs officers overtime to collect the remaining application ..
that depends on ur luck, if i am not wrong, if the office is packed like sardine i doubt u will be able to get a number after 4pm.. so best go early to the centre and even better to make an appointment b4hand ... my friend submitted her application just last week, she made an appointment and went there at 7.55am, centre already filled with students and she was the 1st one to get checked and left the centre 55mins later ..

its best if you could redo the forms since using liquid paper is not recommended when u want to fill up official forms. Moreover, there is a surge of applicants applied and the reviewers from the BHC might be more picky on rejecting applications. why didn't you do the form yourself instead of depending on the agents to do it for you. infact alll the info of filling up your form you can find it easily on this thread itself.

Just my two cents.

Hey grats to the peeps who got their visas already despite all those drama. I'll be flying on next friday on the 25th. I figured I'd skipped Freshers' Week and get over to Paris before class commence. tongue.gif Anybody had any difficulties in getting their visas approved? o.o

You better do the necessary corrections before submitting to BHC or risk RM1055 throwing down the drain and wasted 10 more days only to find out that you need to re apply.
