I was all in 1/22/16 & got the confirmation email on 1/25/16. Nothing yet for me, but a co-worker who sent his stuff in via usps on 2/21 received his plastic Good Friday. Seems to be no rhyme or reason to the order of processing.

Is it me, or does there seem to be a pattern of paper submitted via snail mail getting processed more quickly than docs submitted through the website?

I was all in 1\4 and just got my plastic yesterday. :anamatedbanana :fire :party: It seems like us early January folks are taking 80-90 days. There have been some that have submitted in February and got theirs in less than 6 weeks.

What do mean when you say your status has changed? I got on the website this morning and it's kinda different than what it was when I last checked. Nothing on it says I was approved or anything though.

If you set your target date for sometime in September 2016 you won't get depressed like the rest of us that are sitting around waiting for a change on the website or a surprise in the mailbox. :banghead:

I have not seen the changed website myself but what I understand happens is that the website offers you the ability to change your address, etc. So I imagine that congratulations are in order for you! :cheers2: :cheers2:

Seems like they are making really good progress since the additional staff were added to the system.

Keep cranking them out RSD! I'm on day 68 and hopeful for some good news soon.
