Yep. I did recently for Norway. Usually takes two weeks. But we had to go through third party as consulate does not directly take visa requests

Thank you. I had my docs submitted to the vfs center earlier this week, was curious to know if I’d get it by the end of next week. I have booked my tickets for the next Saturday. Could you tell me how many business days it took for you? I have also paid for express shipping.

I think 7-8 business days.

I got an email saying Please provide us a new travel insurance that doesn’t limit the return of mortal remains separately. Your current one limits it to 500 euros.” I bought the one from equop assistance. Which one did you get? @C-Gang

Insurance?? Why did you buy insurance. Just use the microsoft one.

I was under the impression that I needed to get a separate insurance for this that satisfied schengen rules. I’m not a citizen or Gc holder btw

Yep same here.. on H1B. Microsoft insurance works. I used that for Norway visa. Send an email to the microsoft benefits or call them and they will send u the details
