Well, tomorrow I finish out week 12 and start on week 13. Hopefully, it's a lucky 13. Does anybody seem to notice that system updates happen more on Tuesday/Wednesday than any other day of the week or is it just me? Checking timelines that have been posted, it seems that is the case. Another reason why I wonder what the H is going on in Austin?Lobo73 wrote:Lobo73 wrote:Well, looks like I'm making it through another week in the "Waiting Room/Morgue" with the mundane status of "Processing Application". So, through Sunday (March 30th), I will be at 83 days.1 more week and I'll break the 90 day barrier. Kinda of gives the newbie a less than apprehensive feelin', eh?

The wife's status still says Packet Mailed to Applicant even though application was received in Austin on Feb 6.Big Worm wrote:I have been on "Packet mailed to applicant" for over seven weeks now. I called a couple of weeks ago and they said my app was in prescreening. Has anyone had to wait longer?

Re: Let's hear some updates!
Eight weeks after Austin recieved my app, the status has changed to "processing application" I wonder how long I'll be until the next change in status
Re: Let's hear some updates!
This is unbelievable! I hope you've contacted them and be sure to tell them that they've exceeded their 60 day window!crisp_one wrote:I think I am now the old man here. Here is my timeline:
28 Oct 2007 - took the CHL class
2 Nov 2007 - mailed application
26 Nov 2007 - received PIN, checked online status = "Processing Application"
3 Dec 2007 - received letter, more info needed
7 Dec 2007 - i provided the the info they requested, online status = "Processing Application"

This morning the wife's status changed to Processing Application. Hopefully it is not an April Fools Day joke.5111 wrote:The wife's status still says Packet Mailed to Applicant even though application was received in Austin on Feb 6.Big Worm wrote:I have been on "Packet mailed to applicant" for over seven weeks now.

Well, my bank says the check got cashed/cleared today. Exactly one week from when they recieved it. Making good time so far.
Now I'm waiting on a PIN so I can track my status online.

Well I got my pin 26 days after Austin got my packet. No complaints over here!
