Ok I'm in panic mode.

What does it mean when they ask for your passports?

I haven't gotten any letters saying "you're in" or accepted or whatever. I rang my officer today to make sure some papers arrived and she basically said "we don't acknowledge receipt of stuff, we just act on it.
I asked her if I would eventually need to send my passport (and the childrens) for stamping or whatever and she said "we'll ask for it but you can send them if you're not planning a holiday in the next 4- 6 weeks.

The I get home and I have an e-mail requesting I send the passports "as per our conversation today"

Would she request I sent them early? or could my file have been assessed complete that quickly?

I'm not sure whether to be ecstatic or resigned to another 6 week wait.

Any ideas?

well, seeing as the email didn't say "send your passports UNLESS you are going overseas in the next 6 weeks" I would be inclined to think they may want to put a little sticker in there for you.....

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek! I sure hope so!!!
I.m thinking it might be a good idea to reply to her e-mail and maybe...I don't know ASK for clarification but it's Friday at 5... No way I'll get a response until Monday.

Ohhhhhhhh the torture!

Sounds promising to me but don't push it too much.

A pleasant email confirming you are sending the passports and thanking them for their help will probably suffice.

Use the experience of your job
Go overboard and it could have a negative effect

Fingers crossed eh?

They are only asking for passports for one reason: stickety stick, visa time.
