artetaneville Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 I went to bed at 9pm as I always do watched TV till 10pm then turned it off so I could go to sleep and my husband sits down stairs on the laptop till midnight most night looking at stuff to but lol but he also keeps a check on my emails, at 10pm as I just turned the TV off he phoned me from down stairs (lazy) to tell me we got our visa so not had much sleep since, I did send an email to my Agent demanding information to why I haven't got my Visa and this was my reply. Haha this made me laugh! ? I could so imagine my partner doin the same! **Congratulations** to everyone who has received their visa's so far. We lodged the 1st June (176 family sponsor) and we are waiting in the queue. Hopefully for not to much longer tho ?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Pumpkin30 Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 Yes sorry meant from when you got CO lol. I didnt know if you had been given any kind of explanation but I guess you dont care now! Looks like a good day with more CO/grants. Is anyone checking the spreadsheet and finding out if some of the people are still on this board. The only reason im asking is there seems to be gaps in the spreadsheet and im sure some of the people dont post on here anymore and therefore havent updated the board if they have had a CO/grant.

Bpremji Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 I added a column to the end called Date Updated which I am updating when any changes occur...so it may be worth looking at anyone who hasnt updated in say 3 months and move them to an 'archive' sheet?

Good idea! Im becoming obsessed with wanting to see all the spaces coloured in until it gets to me and I havent seen posts from some of the people on the spreadsheet at all so no idea if they are silently following, cant be bothered to come on here anymore or have got grants and already in Oz!
