Can I apply if I have been refused before?
A previous refusal does not stop you applying again, but you must declare it. We review the refusal reasons and fix the weak points before you reapply.

For most visitor visas there is no single fixed amount. Officers look for funds that match your trip and a steady account history. We review your statements before you apply.

Processing times change with the season and the workload at the embassy or immigration office. We give you a realistic, current timeline on your first call and track your case until the decision.
