E-Safe Timeline Notice

Michelleposted 11 months ago

Hi All, Michelle from FPS Fingerprint Pardon Services, I have not been on here for a long time, simply due to sooo busy...However, I just was reading through, and it is great to see so many people with experience helping each other. And as always, John is a wealth of information and keeps this site updated regularly. I am just posting this as I noticed this yesterday, when I filed an E-safe. I hope this is not for the long haul.

E-SAFE Site..

Yes you can start the application, and then save up until the point where you stop.

Yes this is typical. On this site you will see the most recent waiver was filed on January 10th. So a couple more weeks.

As for last year, that was BEFORE summer which caused a traffic jam of waivers all at once because all the people who had not applied during covid or recently, all applied at one.

Hey in July 2021 I was getting waivers in 5-10 days. But the sheer volume has slowed it down. You are close though.

I efiled Jan 31,2023 and it is still saying submitted. I received my first waiver (only good for one year) after just 29 days after efiling in Jan 2022.
