DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF A COMPUTERIZED VISA PROCESSING INFORMATION SYSTEM (A CASE STUDY OF BRITISH EMBASSY)

ABSTRACT: The primary objective of this endeavour is to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of a durable visa processing system.  Furthermore, its primary objective lies in the meticulous documentation of all immigrants, as well as the streamlined facilitation of visa processing, with the ultimate goal of transforming it into a comprehensive computerised framework.  The study encompasses a comprehensive examination of various domains, including the process of inputting applications, verifying records, generating lists, assigning codes, and ensuring the ongoing maintenance of managed information.  The recently devised system exhibits a commendable level of user-friendliness, facilitating seamless navigation and expeditious access to report generation capabilities.  The identification and resolution of issues stemming from the current system's inefficiencies will be duly communicated, leading to the implementation of a novel system design. In the course of the analysis, the utilisation of written documents, oral interviews, textbooks, and scholarly journals will be employed for the purpose of data collection and as sources of information.  Furthermore, it is anticipated that a software application shall be developed with the purpose of facilitating the operational procedures and record-keeping pertaining to visa processing within the Embassy's service framework.  Given the exponential expansion witnessed in the realm of information technology, it has become imperative to embark upon the development of a comprehensive computerised framework for the efficient handling of visa processing within the esteemed British Embassy service. This undertaking shall be accomplished through the implementation of the proposed project.
