Well I finally have all my documentation to file for the K-1. :dance: I have been on this board for over a year now and I can finally file. I have been biting my finger nails and checking the packet a zillion times. I had other people review it also and low and behold I forgot a signature. Phew! It will be sent out express mail today.

I can now finally start the journey with everybody else. Yeah!

Jen

P.S. Thank you for pinning the RFE list. I reviewed that also! :thumbs:

Everything I respond to is from personal knowledge, research or experience and I am in no means a lawyer or do I claim to be one. Everyone should read, research and be responsible for your own journey.

Good luck and don't worry too much - from reading everyone's experiences here - it seems that less than 1% have 'real' problems and most of us - 90% have a hard time with waiting - so buy a bunch of Molsons and invite us over for the long wait! :lol:
