My evisa got approved on my 1st try within 3 business days!

My evisa got approved on my 1st try within 3 business days🎉🤩! I was so nervous reading all the posts in this group on others’ applications being denied and failed attempts on providing additional information. Sharing what I did below so hopefully the information can help anyone else in this group who is stressing out about their applications.1. Preparation in advance: I gathered all the information I needed prior to starting the application so I could put in everything correctly and quickly once I start the application as there’s a time limit. This was in the form of an Excel spreadsheet including all the information I needed to provide: My accommodation address in Vietnamese, the name of the airport I’m flying in and out of, the city, province, ward, etc. That way when it came to completing the application, I was simply copying and pasting to avoid typos and to save loads of time. I also had the step by step help guide provided by the Vietnam immigration office (under “Information” in the drop down menu on the main page) in a separate browser so I can refer to it as I fill my application. I have two monitors and made use of it by having my application on one monitor, and my Excel spreadsheet and help guide up on the other monitor. I used Chrome. 2. Passport photo: I put on a nice dress shirt and took a headshot selfie using my iPhone. I stood against a wall that was off white and made sure the lighting was good so my picture is very clear. I tried my best to match my facial expression to the same as my passport photo and even my hair style too (where my hair parted). I took multiple photos and selected the one that was a closest match to upload. Mine ended up being a 75% match while my partner’s was 87%. 3. Information Provided: As mentioned previously, there is a step by step guide with pictures on the official website. Click on “Information” in the menu. I copied what I could from the instructions and sample pictures as applicable for myself. For example, I am not religious and wasn’t sure what to put down (Not religious? No religion?Not applicable?). I noticed the sample application simply had “no” for that field so I matched my answer to the sample. I did not edit any information that was automatically filled after I uploaded a picture of my passport. I just verified it was all correct. 4. Dates of Entry: I read on a post that it was safer and acceptable to put in dates a few days before and after your scheduled booked flights in case of flight changes – especially if it’s a single entry visa. I did this and it was not an issue. 5. Intended Date of Entry: I provided my actual date of entry as per my flight ticket. As I’m flying from quite far away, this ended up being two days after my flight departs. I entered the actual date I land in Vietnam and this was reflected on the visa issued to me. 6. Payment: After I submitted my application, I received two emails: One confirming my application had been successfully submitted and the other asking for payment. I paid right away and received a third email once the payment went through. Hope this helps! Feel free to ask questions if I missed anything!— đang cảm thấy thành công.
