I mentioned a few weeks ago (or a week ago?) about webform not replying to advise that my proofs had been received. They sent me an interesting email this morning. They are pleased to advise me that they have received them, and they have forwarded them to the "responsible officer" in hopes that they may be considered.
So, reading a little between those lines -- does that mean there is now (FINALLY!) an officer assigned to our application? The text would seem to indicate that.
This is good to know because I have been sending them supporting documents now and then and I have never been 100% sure if they received the attachments because never actually got a confirmation of the attachments being received.
Edited: They acknowledge receipt of the web (see below) but never saying we received xxxxxx documents attached.
