I am a Canadian citizen who is looking to get a UK ancestry visa (INF 9). I understand that the process is to submit an application online at www.visas4uk.org, then go to www.visaservices.com to make an appointment at a Visa Application Centre (VAC), get an interview and then wait for an answer.

My question is, once I apply...

(1) How long does it take to get an appointment at a VAC (specifically the Toronto VAC)?
(2) How long after the interview does it take to get an answer back and get my passport returned? I know it says from 5 - 15 days, but curious if anyone could give me some advice based on recent experience.

Thanks,
Greg
