One of the applicants in Chennai got an appointment for tomorrow. They got a response within 15 minutes. Maybe it depends on location. We filled the webform today. Now waiting for appointment email.

From what I’ve read on Twitter you have to contact VFS via email about this. They’ll be able to link the second applicant
