The VFS representative suggested that it would take at least three weeks to process the family visitor visa and recommended to opt fast service which my parents refused as they were not in hurry to arrive UK.
At the moment the status is showing as under process. I am going to wait and see for another week.
Thanks
Any update on your parents applications..

Any others who applied in Chennai, can you post your timelines please. Previously (about year ago) it was only taking a week ...Can t understand why it is taking 3 weeks now

Can I check whether you submitted original documents or scanned copies? I am fully sponsoring my mother and father and not sure whether I need to send original salary slips and bank statements
