My husband withdrew his family permit application from the same embassy a couple of times because on both ocassions they took more than 4 weeks to process.

Hi, Just to let you guys know that we managed to visit London again. At the airport Ryanair staff did question us about the visa, but when we told them that we have a stamp (code 1A) which allow us to enter UK, they let us board the plane. However at Stanstead, after waiting for 1hr&30 mins in t...
