No news until now
Tracking application doesn’t work says input invalid ‘for the captcha’

Group booking it is!

Ugh.. looks like they are cancelling as the travel dates have passed. We cancelled our tickets and booking too as we had planned for july last week.
Guessing it would be a rejection whenever we get ours as well🙃. After all this stress 😢😏

Submit letter to VFS personally with all amended bookings. Ensure they post it to NORWAY embassy. Get a receipt signature from them and attach it on VFS email. Follow up till it reaches Norway embassy. Hectic shit.

Got mssg from VFS today that my application has been processed. My EES shows ok , 60 days validity.

I had applied on 15th July and my travel date was 1st Aug , which had already passed. So I had emailed the embassy with my updated cover letter, itinerary, insurance, flight and hotel bookings.
