Re: April 2008 Applicants
OK, managed to get through to ASPC. 
Was told we don't have a CO
Was told they don't have any idea when MEDS will be processed
Even though nothing has changed, I feel strangely better having had the opportunity to speak to someone.
I'll just be here in my corner, waiting my turn for the MEDS to be processed.

You will get something soon, perhaps they're waiting for your OH's and process them all together?? Stranger things have happened!!

We are keeping our fingers crossed for you. I'm sure melbert is right, they are just waiting for all the meds to be in and then changes will start. Have you decided whether you are selling or rented out your house?
Lots of positive thoughts are going out to you.

Really do hope they have a sudden burst of activity and your meds and visa are all through asap!

I agree with the others it will all come together at once.
By the way, we tried to call the ASPC on Monday and could not get thru.
Can you let me know the number that you tried.
We are hoping that some contact with a person could help.

It's different when you get into the hold cue. There are recordings and ringings but just sit tight.
Thanks for the positive words! I'm sure it will happen for all of us - just maybe not on our time table.

Tiger - keep smiling mate - as you know, it can change in the blink of an eye and I'm sure your turn is coming quick. Ask Ashy to pass his CO onto you 
worked for me!
Have some karma for your patience

Re: April 2008 Applicants
I just used the same number. The tricks are: 1 when the recording begins, press 2; when the recording begins again, press 0; when the 3rd recording begins, press 0 again. After the series of rings, if the recording starts again, hang up and redial.
