After Packet 3, waiting for Packet 4

[Rinni 3]

The feeling of relief was surreal - I started to well up with tears as soon as I got that piece of paper And I was nervous too!! I also had nothing to be nervous about, but it's just all very exciting and I guess the 7 month build up doesn't help!!

And I bet that schnitzel tasted good

Now just the wait for the physical visa.. I've already booked my flight so hoping the visa comes within the next week!!!

Kate and Dan, my visa arrived today from TOLL And finally I get to admire the famous mysterious yellow envelope. Oooo. Hoping yours arrives today too.

Also got mine today but they made a mistake on the visa and put the wrong passport number on it (check it folks). I'm assuming they'll need to reissue it but have to wait for them to respond to emails as they don't take calls (I tried).

Double checked all my copies of paperwork and the travel docs profile and it's all correct there so someone has made a one keystroke error that completely messes us around. Not happy.

Oh no! I'm sorry to hear that. Keep us posted as you get in touch with them. Hope it doesn't take forever to hear back from them.

The Consulate emailed me back yesterday and I had to return all documents back to Sydney for correction and reissue. Should take 5 business days apparently.

Not happy about the screw up but very glad I picked it up as may have been denied entry. One basic error could have undermined everything.
