well you may remember from last week i'm applying for a short term variation to allow me to have 4 children under 5.

well thursday i emailed them and posted letter but they emailed back saying they couldn't process as they didn't have my signature so..

friday i emailed them back with signature and they passed it on to relevant department..

heard nothing so this morning i phoned them and spoke to really helpful chap who understood the urgency and said he would contact the department now and get them to deal with it. he seemed fairly certain they would phone me back later today so fingers crossed i hear by 5.30pm!!

well phoned them again.. and they asked for the names, dob and exact days/hours. i explained that i didn't have days/hours as mum wasn't sure and he ok that's fine. he said he didn't think it would be a problem but i wasn't happy that i didn't have a definitive answer or anything in writing. i queried this and we decided i'd phone back later to make sure!

if i haven't heard from them by 4.30 i'll phone again. will they send me a new certificate or just a letter stating the variation for the three weeks it applies?

Hi

Keep nagging - it keeps them on their toes.

You should get a new certificate.
