Very frustrating indeed.
I am thinking one of two possibilities:
1) The email sent out earlier today stating that the forms were ready were sent automatically based on the previously set date of 02/07/2024, but the forms are not ready. Now instead of a promised date, we get 'Ready Soon' so as to not upset the masses further.
2) The emails went out prematurely and the database will be updated later tonight or after midnight.
Obviously, I am hoping for the latter.
