Hi, My guess is next week you will get a SIF .. but all cases are a bit different ,especially from the complexity of the rfe.. (some rfes are simple ,some are complicated). look at my signature and others to get an "estimate"... Best of luck for SIF for you and everyone else still waiting... Wayne(booger)
