Off to see the wizard!

#1

Post by kwf2006 »

Packet sent off today, procrastinated for 10 months after taking the class.

Wish me luck guys!

I hope it goes through and I did everything right in filling out the paperwork.

It was a major pain in the butt, and it cost me $10000 but its all good :)

$10,000? I'm sure this is a good story!

$10,000 sounds like smebody had taxes or back child support to catch up on

Close! Actually it was a student loan.

I recently came into a bit of money so I paid it off in full.

I dind't really have to, I could have just kept doing payments. But, hey, I owed them the money and didnt want them to have any excuses not to issue.

Hopefully I will see a pin here in a few weeks

Thanks for reading and replying everyone, it makes the time go by quicker knowing im not alone!

Checked the website:

"Application Completed - license issued or certificate active"

I wonder how long it will take for the plastic to make it to me (east texas)?

My status changed on a Monday, and my plastic arrived on Friday. A guy in my class got his on the following Saturday. We're in the Longview/Marshall area.

Amazing.... :grumble

I sent in my paperwork 2 days before you did, and they waited 39 days days, doing nothing, until telling me they wanted additional paperwork because I was born overseas. I faxed them the additional papers the day after I received their letter (44 days later) and was told that NOW my 60-90 day wait starts.

:banghead:

So here I am, 10 days into "Processing Application", but really 54 days into it. :roll:
