Indian bureaucracy is a bloody nightmare, and after all it was based on the Brit model! <br /><br />@Blondie - I'm not thinking of those horrors right now.

I think visa applications (like PhD applications) are partly a test in reading between the lines, whereby if you are smart enough to figure out the labyrinthine process, they'll reward you with a "Yes".Timorous Beastiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16006684419739506630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17049303.post-28165319624274451642009-03-21T10:01:00.000-04:002009-03-21T10:01:00.000-04:00Chickadee, this is exactly what I went through whe...Chickadee, this is exactly what I went through when I applied for my Working Holiday Visa for the UK way, way, way back in May/June 1999. Urgh. Painful process, with much stress and anxiety. However, it all turned out OK and rather than the usual 6 week wait to have the visa issued, mine was turned around in 2 weeks.<BR/><BR/>So, fingers crossed that all goes smoothly with your application - take a deep breath and try to relax and not stress too much. <BR/><BR/>xxxJuleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14014057273074449609noreply@blogger.com
