And the MUCH better half now has plastic in hand as of today, 3/21/11.

The MUCH better half had hers switch to 'Manufacturing' a couple days ago. We're headed to SA for the weekend so it might be here once we get back.

Mine was received by DPS on the 1/26. Prints (rolled) were rejected. I went to L-1 and 2 days later they showed "Complete". No further progress since 2/25 though.

The bad prints sent you back a month. I feel for you.

Hope it doesn't add another month. That's what sort of cheeses me a bit. In the other thread Cotton says that DPS doesn't NEED the prints in the first place. So if they're not needed, why have an 'accept/reject' criteria for them in the first place? They could collect the prints, but just say "yeah, those look like prints" and go on.

In Justins class at The Arms Room.

FINALLY got through to DPS. They said I could schedule with L-1. Called and the earliest I can get in is next Wednesday.

Unfortunately, with my work schedule I'll today it will be tough to hold for that long. Tried searching for an answer but haven't found anything so far.

Ink prints taken at the class.

I'm just going to schedule a time with L1. I don't think I HAVE to wait for the "bad prints" letter. Or do I?

The MUCH better half and I both had this show on our status today:
Fingerprints : Quality unacceptable, notice sent to applicant
