a situation here…

I have one more exam to pass until I’m done with this dreadful exam. Bad news is that the last section that I have to tackle is the Goliath of the four (a.k.a the FAR).

I submitted the repeat application online last Tuesday and then mailed the signed form along with the $50 application fee the day after (Wednesday the 5th). I’m assuming the mail arrived in Sacramento either Friday or Monday.

Anyway, I’ve been checking my bank account everyday since, yet I still do not see that the $50 has not been cashed by the Board. It has been exactly 1 week since I mailed my check, and I hear people say that a typical REPEAT application takes some time between 5 – 7 business days.

Here’s the sticky situation – January 31, 2011 is the last day that I can take the FAR before my AUD score expires. I got 76 on the Audit (aka a miracle) and seeing it expire and having to retake it is the last thing I want to happen to me.

So here are my Q’s:

1) I have little less than three weeks before the time runs out. How probable is it for my application to be processed in time?

2) Do you think contacting the CBA to ask them to rush my application is a complete total waste of time?

3) If I want to call them about this issue, which number should I call? They have so many different numbers, I’m a bit confused. They have number for the Board, different number for Exam Center, and again different number for Application. Which is the appropriate number to call?

Thank you so much in advance! I’m a bit worried 🙁

no one?

I still didn't get any email from the Board. And my $50 is still not cashed.

2-3 weeks is the processing time for NTS .

BEC 2/8/10 - 75 (studied hard & prayed less)
REG 5/15/10 - 88 (studied less but prayed hard)
AUDITING 8/9/10 - 79 (studied hard and prayed hard)
FAR 11/30/10 - 79 (studied hard and prayed hard) Thanks GOD! I'm DONE

California_Love,

I have reapplied for FAR as well and anxiously waiting to schedule the exam by the end of February.

Here's my situation:

12/18 Mailed out Application to CBA

12/21 Payment received by CBA

12/23 ATT sent to NASBA

12/26 ATT approved by NASBA

My online account status says I should receive the payment coupon by NASBA within 2~3 weeks, however, I'm still waiting for it. If I don't received it by early next week I'll have to contact them about it.

Hopefully your case won't take this long since you have a risk of losing a credit. You should definitely call them and see if there's anything they can do….

Good luck!
