Ok so i hand-delivered my prospective marriage visa application
(frontloaded) to Australia House last week (thursday 9th november) and
i'm just wondering what i should be expecting to happen now?

I thought i was waiting for an email acknowledgement but do they only do
that to let you know it's arrived there, say if you sent it in the post?

I called my credit card company on friday and they said that an
authorisation had been requested for the amount of the visa fee (which
means that they've made the funds available) so does that mean that
someone is already looking at my application?

I'm so anxious!! I keep rushing home from work to check my email!! I
know i should just relax as i might be in for a long wait but i just
want to know whats going on?! Think i may have lost my mind.....

Join the club. The waiting is horrible. It easier said that
done relaxing.

Good luck with it all
