The embassy website wasn't very clear, and I was running out of time before my appointment. The document checklist for Iceland was the single most useful bit — I stopped worrying about missing papers. I was in and out of the VFS centre in under 20 minutes because my paperwork was tidy. I had friends warn me about common mistakes and none of them showed up here. Will be using it again for my next trip. Minor nitpick: I wish the dashboard loaded a bit faster.
