No word from them at all, not even the AOR2, the letter which is supposed to confirm that they have received the application. Other offices send that to applicants.

Please provide your file number in all correspondence.

Your application is not yet finalized. For a Greek citizen we require only a photocopy of the passport – not the original. We will also require photos which are compliant to new specifications – as per attachment. If you did not provide these up front you should submit them now.

At least they responded to your email. I have sent a couple of documents as attachment online and by email to them, I don't even have a confirmation that they have received them.
What email address did you use?
