Thanks Flyaway.
Too true, but different types of stresses now.
We have just sent off required documents after contact with agent,nose out of joint as we took them "out of the loop."
E-mailed CO directly so waiting in his inbox in morning.
Just hope he doesn't want anything else, can't stand the waiting much more!
Then there's still a house to sell....aaaah!

Yep and threatened them with my cooking! and they still let me in! Stylophone is now very limp. With the last few docs you've sent you must get your grant - I'm willing it all the time. My kids were worried for you and want to know when you get yours too!

Ahh,
That's kind, thank you.
Believe me no one is willing it more harder than we are.
So worried something else might be wrong but have to jump hurdles as they come and it ain't over till the fat lady sings.
....Is that singing I can hear in the wings?

OMG!!!

We have a CASE OFFICER!!!!!


I checked our status before going to bed. No Change.
Two hours later, I woke to find an email from our case officer
requesting further information (ACS Approval letter)

He asked me to send the ACS Approval letter by return email ASAP.

I immediately went to my "Australia" folder on my computer desktop, attached the PDF file of the scanned document (I swear I had attached it 6 months ago) and emailed it to our CASE OFFICER.

Then logged in to check our status. File states
APPLICANT BEING PROCESSED FURTHER!!!!

I checked the 2nd page and only my information is marked MET

Checked email again...

CO replied that I might be receiving some good news shortly.......

Woke DH to tell him WE HAVE A CASE OFFICER!!!

Went back to bed but could NOT SLEEP!!!!

JUST CHECKED EMAIL NOW........


and

there's ANOTHER EMAIL from my CASE OFFICER!!!

In this email, he states I should check "The Browser"

Logged in to check status

APPLICANT APPROVED!!!!!

WOO HOO!!!! WE HAVE OUR VISA!!!!!

We must enter country by 23 September, 2009 -

NO WORRIES!!!!

Flights Booked - CHECK! (Fly out 18 November, 2008)

Holiday Rental - CHECK! (Reservations Confirmed!)

Our House Rented - CHECK! (Received Deposit Yesterday!)


THANK GOD!!! It's all happening!!!
