Hey Mark I was afraid something like that had happened. Anyway, seems
Maggie aka Maggs might have gotten one if I remember correctly-think
it might be in her timeline on the K3 EAD rollcall thread.

Thanks Cindy - it looks like it took something like 2-3 weeks, but as I
said in the other post - that was back in the good ol' days when EAD
processing only took a short eternity!



Any news? Have you applied for an interim one yet?



- Mark

Nothing new here, . Right now we're going to sit tight for a wee bit
longer before going to get interim, since we hate to spend the money for
a flight to Atlanta right now. Also I'm not quite up to the role of
chauffeur for a 300 mile trip yet to save booking the flight.

Sigh.

Did you ask them what happened to the original biometrics you did?

Nope... I've a new strategy called "on a need-to-know-basis". Reason is,
when I was trying to track down my NOA, I couldn't get it re-requested
as I knew my receipt number. How? By queueing up at the Bloomington
centre at 4 in the morning. Fair huh?



So these days, I volunteer nothing except what I'm explicitly asked or
have to impart to gain some other information.



Good luck with you and yours..!
