Visas and Biometrics

Hi again!  So, i finally submitted my Student Visa Application to obtain a student visa to be able to remain in England for 5 months.  It was a long and tedious process.  The application was an estimated 24 pages long and they basically want to know your life story.  Upon completing my application I submitted it Online and was told to make a Biometrics appointment!  So, on Tuesday November 4th, 2008,  (voting day!)  I had my appointment.

At the appointment, they took an absolutely hideous picture of me and documented my fingerprints in a weird computer system.  I was in and out very quickly, but it took me forever to find the place!  It was supposed to only be about a 20 minute drive and ended up being a 45 minute drive! ugh!  But I was able to get there on time and do what i had to do!

Next step is to be approved for my student visa and purchase my plane ticket!

I will keep you updated!
