Re: "Waiting Room"
That is a very good indicator! I have no Idea how big of a batch they are printed in or how long it takes to fill that batch. I would definitely call this "the light at the end of the tunnel".fwant wrote:I was still under review, but I checked today and suddenly I'm print pending?? Hmmmm.........

Re: "Waiting Room"
Yay! The post office delivered it to the wrong house! That is not unusual with this post office. The guy on the next block brought it to me. Said he got it this morning.

Re: "Waiting Room"
Anyone who grumbles about processing time let me remind 'em of the old days. I put my initial application in February 2009 and got my plastic almost 7 months later in September 2009.
