msbigshot - the ONLY way YOUR part of the application (applicant) can be IN PROCESS and being worked on is IF you have ALREADY received Sponsor approval. Therefore, it is likely that you were one of the unlucky ones that did not receive a physical email or letter stating your sponsor was approved... HOWEVER, this means that your sponsor WAS approved and your file is being worked on (i.e. you are WAYYYY further ahead than sponsor approval). Assuming of course, that the person you spoke to was not an idiot
Congrats! ;D
