Looks like they made it unupdatable by everybody because I cant modify my entry which is outdated.

I don't know but its really annoying. The version that is up now doesn't seem to be the most recent version. Some changes I made to my dates last week, have now resorted to the previous dates, and the DAYS columns are all messed up! Seriously people... Thank goodness I took a copy of the sheet late last week.

I have access again for modifying the spreadsheet. I tried to fix some things and I was able to bring back some statistics but the "number of days" not showing properly is beyond my knowledge of spreadsheets. I will try to figure it out later if I can.

What does it mean when passport request is exempt?
They dont take your passport at all?

Contacted DHL today as had a strange feeling. They said they tried to deliver COPR on Friday and again on Saturday, but we were not home. We were actually home all day on both days. After confirming the address, part of our building name was cut off on the label and they had an old mobile contact number listed, despite us updating the embassy with the new contact numbers back in May 2014. The courier said they are going to try to deliver again today. At least we have a tracking number now. Woohoo. So many emotions lol. Looks like we are still a go for Saturday flight! Just need to get the PDOS completed now!

Congrats TeamGO! To answer your question, my wife is enjoying much Canada. Of course she finds it cold especially she arrived on an "Extreme cold warning" from environment Canada. We are really enjoying our time together now. I wish everybody will be able to feel the same way very soon.
