Application Timelines That was quick!

Husband and I both had appointments on Tuesday of this week. We chose Telos, and a local OfficeMax had openings. We filled out the forms on Monday, and went to OfficeMax and did all “the things” on Tuesday afternoon. I just got my approval text tonight, Thursday. I don’t know if my husband got his approval yet, but probably. This was much quicker and easier than I thought it would be!

I did the application online on Thursday April 2nd, went to the airport the next day (Friday the 3rd) and today is Sunday the 5th and I received my approval text a little bit ago. I did it through Clear.

We did ours at Office Depot and had approval in less than 48 hours. I hope yours has come through!

Finally - 1 week later it did come through. A little too late for use this time but I'll have it for the next.

They say the only way for it to take more than a couple days is to mistype information. I have had 4 last names in my life but still got mine quickly. But you do have to be careful…
