Got the visa stamp back
 
Just thought that i would let you all know that we sent our passports to AHC on Tuesday morning, 4 hours after receiving the visa grant letter via e-mail, and they are now back in our possession, three days later.

What a turn around and in under 3 days:)

All that stress for a little bit of paper:)

Cool, we sent ours off yesterday to our agent, good job it's a quick turn around 'cos were off in less than 3 weeks :D
As they say the best things come in small packages, and I doubt there's much smaller or greater than that bit of paper !!

I sent ours off Tuesday before last and heard nothing! I suppose our sticking it in the passport officer has gone on leave until October!! (Or Royal Mail have managed to make it a full house and have lost it!! - Surely they wouldnt loose Special Delivery would they?)

He He, You can't ring the AHC either. Does seem to be me doesnt it!

I cant remember actually putting an envolope in with the letter, Special Delivery slip and postage so I sent them one with a covering letter today. (might have done, might not)

I can't even think about the prospect of the loss of our passports!

Good ta. Picked up the "Your keys to driving in Queensland" book today so I can take my test next week. I'm also gonna start making an effort to find a job next week too, though I do have one interview already despite not doing much :) I need to speak to the nice lady on Tuesday to arrange the date / time.

Yeah, it certainly looks like those orangy train tickets. Very hard to get though
