license applications

[Thorian]

I think I'm going to make contact iwth GOSA today as I'm getting a bit tired of waiting. I'm on 6 months total now and still stuck at licensing for over 3 months

Hope you can assist me. I see on GOSAs website they say - (

Motivations subsidised; Appeals subsidised) What do they mean with this?

[glenn.watson]

have no idea what that means

Please keep us posted. Heard via the grapevine if you complain the cadre on the other end says "go ahead, sue us". They know nothing will happen to them

GOSA normally gives a lower rate to members but if I'm not mistaken, they are running a subsidized special.
You'll have to check on their Facebook page

Seems to have worked in my case.
GOSA started making enquiries and my application started to move. Sat at "Received at Licensing Section" for 2 months and then GOSA started enquiring, 3 days later it moved to "In preparation for Consideration"

[glenn.watson]

so I spoke to them. They will make contact with the CFR but the CFR has 3 weeks to respond. Then gosa make further contact and another 3 weeks. So nothing is guaranteed, I'll decide later if I'll go that route or just wait
