I probably shouldn't have stated it the way that I did and I left out a lot just to make it easy for you to see what you were wanting to see. However Google gives this official information on what you should do when checking to see who links to you:

Some words, when followed by a colon, have special meanings to Google. One such word for Google is the link: operator. The query link:siteURL shows you pages that point to that URL. For example, link:www.google.com will show you pages that point to Google's home page.

As you can see, they do not leave a space.
If you are actually listed, then that method will work to show you who links to you. If you need to leave a space after the colon in order to find who links to you, that would indicate that you are being linked to buy you aren't yourself indexed in Google. So you did it the correct method and what I was saying was you didn't do it the correct way to find yourself since you aren't yet indexed.
But, being linked to means that you are going to be indexed. However it wouldn't be possible to tell you when since it can vary a lot with Google.
