I know I tried that and it didn't work. Maybe I'll give it a try in the afternoon.

Some countries require 2 years of ITR, while others require 3. It is better to verify using the checklist for the country you looking to apply with. I have submitted only my last 2-year ITR and 3-month bank statements for Switzerland.
In my experience, it's important to show that you're employed (using NOC on company letterhead) and that you're married, along with funds in your bank account. Ideally being single or married shouldn't be a factor but for Schengen visa it is.

Hello! I just received my passport and it has been affixed with only a 30-day validity visa(within 3 months) when I had requested for a 2-month visa! Is this normal!? My travel date is just 12 days away, so is there any way to remedy this? This is my first time visiting the Schengen region.
Did you give the itinerary for 60 days?

YES! I've mailed the consulate now. I had more than enough funds and all the bookings were in place, so I don't know why this has happened. I hope it's some kind of a mix-up.

Update- The Swiss consulate has asked me to submit my passport back to VFS for the visa. They will now issue a new visa for the original requested duration. 1 in a 1000 chance of it happening and it happened to me. 😅
And it’s quite frustrating for it to happen last minute, but I’m glad they are helping me out!
It’s also nice to see that it is possible to get a longer duration visa in your first attempt.

Have you got the revised visa? Similar thing happens with me from French Embassy.

Yes. I had to drop my passport off at the nearest VFS centre and I got in 3 days. They issued a new visa and cancelled the previous one.
Most painful countries to go to.. Plus most of the cities of erstwhile great tourist destination are in tatters and so dirty ki ghin aayegi... Only Switzerland was a league apart that too remote areas kuch better
My recommendation based on last 3 times in 10 years... Choose another set of countries if you can

Cool, I am also thinking of writting it to French Embassy as I have enough fund and considering it is my 3rd time with them , I don't see any reason of issuing me lesser days visa than my original itinary.
Can you DM the email format which you used for swiss.

So I got my UK VISA in the past week I am traveeling for business meetings for almost 2 months however weekends will be free. I am planning on just visiting 1 weekend to Paris is it worth the expense for 2 days and if Yes then if I apply now in how many days I will receive the VISA as most likely I will be leaving for UK by the mid to end of July
It’s not worth it, especially because you plan to leave my mid or end of July.
It’s not the expense, but you would risk your UK trip if you plan on applying for Schengen Visa now. It’s already 1st of July.
Appointments are only available after 10-15 days (minimum), and then their official TAT is 15 working days (from the date passports reach the Embassy).
You run the risk of not receiving your passport in time before your flight to the UK.
So, just focus on UK this time.
Only if you can get an appointment this week, can you even begin to consider it.

Thanks for your reply then I will just go to UK and from what I understand since I got a BIVS stamped VISA I can enter Ireland also (correct me if I am wrong)
Will spend weekeneds then in London, Manchester, Newcastle, Glasgow and if time permits visit Dublin and Northern Ireland too
yes, it is correct

Thanks for your help
I used my irish bivs and went to London last year. But I think you cant travel to Northern Ireland with bivs. Just double check. Ireland is a wonderful and peaceful country to go to. I have travelled there atleast 12 times in the past 11 years.

Isnt Northern Ireland a part of UK I thought if you got UK VISA you could visit Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland also along with England
How long Swiss embassy took to respond to your email.
