If you live in
London we advise
going to London
in person on a
weekday and Go
up early to get
there (near
Waterloo Bridge)
at 9am. There is
a big queue. If
you get there
early - you will
get a good
position. Your
position
determines your
ticket number
and then how
fast you are
seen when the
ticket office
opens.
You must have:
Passport (valid
for at least 6
months)
The fee GBP30
(in cash or
postal orders)
2 passport-sized
photographs
Names of
references in UK
and in India
(Innobuzz can
provide Indian
references)
It usually takes
about 3 hours
from start to
finish, but you
do not have to
wait all that
time. You can go
away and do some
shopping or have
a coffee while
they are
processingyour
application.
