    im reading that 3000 visas have already been given out and am beginning to panic!

    i have set up my kompass account but it will take a couple of days to get the paperwork in order. do ye think that the quota is going to be filled in the days coming? last year it didn't fill until may if i'm not mistaken.

    also i have a friend who is awaiting a new passport and can't apply until it's here, are the chances high that they will miss out?

    Its the initial rush

    Some of them wont be accepted and be added back and the volume will slow. There will be one or two thousand lingering for a while I'd say. I'm in the same boat. Waiting on a passport to be sorted. If I miss it I'll just save untill the next quota as I wasnt planning on going till this time next year anyways.

    I'd be surprised if they all go in Jan
