I'm one of the dumb A's that got the dreaded incomplete. It seems I not only left the employment history off ( thought it was part of the residence history ) but I left out the SS # on the fingerprint cards. Not like me but somehow it happened. Charles told us they were lookin for anything to kick it back to ya and I gave em plenty. They've had it back for a week and I'm still gettin the incomplete when I check it.

Did you call to make sure they got it, I faxed stuff to them and called back a few hours later and had to fax again only this time I called about 10 minutes later.

:iagree:

It took me three attempts to get them to accept a fax (that I don't believe they needed anyway but that is another story). I would definately call and ask them.

... I run a macro that does it all for me... in about 2 seconds. :smilelol5: "rlol" :rolll :woohoo :lol:

Not really though, but I have considered it!!

You know... ooo.. this could be bad.. you're making me think.

I just thought of writing a script to check it for me automatically every X minutes, and automatically Text message me on my phone if it ever changes..... just load it, and grep it for the word 'complete'...
... I think I'll work on it tomorrow.
