3/03: Check cashed
Update:
3/11: called and talked to a rep around 10 pm ET. Upgraded to expedited service ($60 charge). Was told my application was being processed in NH and with expedited service it could be processed in 20 business days.. Asked for a travel date multiple times but I don't have one. They seem to indicate that they could try to accommodate any upcoming travel. Declined to upgrade to faster mailing once issued.
3/12: 12 AM received email that application was received and I selected regular service . . . noted 10-12 weeks.
3/12: Status checker changed later that day to note expedited service and 4-6 weeks.
3/13: woke up to email from a little after midnight with tracking info. I should receive by 3/20. Status checker says same.
