i got this email from Ms Barrows.

Hi. I am not sure why you are receiving different information from CSC. Since you are the beneficiary, I won’t be able to reply to you directly. Can you send me your husband’s email address and I will take a look and get back to him on Monday?

Thanks,

hope she can help us
