TLDR : Answer Summary
The user's visa document request has been pending since November 25, raising concerns about whether this is an unusual delay. Comments suggest that such pending statuses are normal as the immigration department is likely still reviewing the application. Users recommend remaining calm and patient during this processing time.

NO, it is NOT normal to read the user manual.

There is Facebook where you can ask if your mother or nanny are not available
