I'd heard so many rejection stories that I was genuinely anxious about applying. Going through the checklist for a Greece visa specifically (not a generic one) made all the difference. I was in and out of the VFS centre in under 20 minutes because my paperwork was tidy. The explanations of each field are short and human, not legalese. Honestly one of the least stressful bureaucratic experiences I've had.
