enough of this #######... here's something to help you guys... I have been waiting for 8+ months now..

http://www.duluth.lib.mn.us/Databases/Contact/Federal.html

As of tomorrow, I'm going to email everyone I have on my list everyday... fax them repeatedly the letter I wrote last time, and latest case status.. :angry: :angry: :angry: what's the worst they can do? put my application under security check?... it already is.. :angry: I want to get approved too.. let everyone know about their stupidity..

just called them this morning too... FINALLY, someone at the CSC said I was out of processing times... they are going to look into it, but told me to wait.. what a bunch of retards.. they SHOULD BE lucky to earn $10 per hour..
