All I want for Christmas is a marriage visa...lol. I think it will be quite delayed due to the holidays. Three weeks and it is still in the formalized mode. The first application was not granted due to current passport number did not match the passport number on the marriage certificate.
That was easy enough to resolve as I have all of my old passports and visa stamps. I understand the question; but, do feel it was a bit picky and that they could have just asked for evidence rather than rejection. Hoping they don't pick up something else to reject with.
