I took my class on 3/12 after receiving my packet from Austin two weeks before. I sent all my packet directly after the class so I am counting my timeline from 5/15 assuming they got it about then. now it is 5/28 and still sitting at " app. mailed to applicant", I called at the 60 day mark and nothing but they have my app. it is day number 73. I was frustrated but reading about everyone hear has taught me some patients. I hope my profile will change at least to processing application soon. Baby steps. But thanks everyone for sharing. It is great to meet people who are going through the same. keep the wally walk pics coming and look forward to sending my own.
Thanks agian to everyone here.

Welcome Wyatt, it is good to have you aboard. Pull up a chair, sit back and relax... it seem that we all are in the same boat, but you will find some very nice folks here and are willing to help in any way they can. I am new also and have only but began my very long wait.
