I concur, some waivers seem to take longer then others depending on their routing process. Even prior to that, we should expect an influx of applications when multiple boards convene around the same time. Sometimes that alone will hold up an application past the deadline.At least a month before the convening of the board, if you have waivers.
Did you call the communities directly? How do you know INTEL and IP accepted the waiver?I could not get a straight answer from Mr. Celestin on this, but I chose to submit mine, including my waiver, on Thursday the 18th. Intel accepted the waiver on the 19th (Friday). The following Monday (22nd), IP accepted it. Still waiting on CW to accept it.

Once my application was submitted, I have received 3-4 individual emails from him stating when medical was accepted and when a board/community accepts my waiver.

In nearly all cases it isn't if a waiver will get approved it is when, the real test comes when the board meets and they decided to accept or not accept the waiver, and how many with waiver they will accept as they only accept those with waivers in "limited numbers".Did you call the communities directly?

Can you shed some light on this. Is it likely that the CW board hasn't met yet and seen my waiver?In nearly all cases it isn't if a waiver will get approved it is when, the real test comes when the board meets and they decided to accept or not accept the waiver, and how many with waiver they will accept as they only accept those with waivers in "limited numbers".
It is the OCM that will give the ok on the waiver, then CNRC will give the final ok to go to board. Then when the board meets they will decide if they want to go along with the waiver.Can you shed some light on this. Is it likely that the CW board hasn't met yet and seen my waiver?
Intel and IP approved it within 1-2 working days, per the emails I received. I was told that I would get an email even if it was rejected by the CW board.
Ok, so there are three reviews/approvals for the waiver. Interesting.It is the OCM that will give the ok on the waiver, then CNRC will give the final ok to go to board. Then when the board meets they will decide if they want to go along with the waiver.
The OCM and CNRC are essentially an automatic yes, it is the board that really makes the decision, but when a person has a waiver and gets a "N", it could be due to the waiver issue or it could be that the waiver isn't an issue but they just have too many people with waivers and can take all of them.Ok, so there are three reviews/approvals for the waiver.

I appreciate the reality check. I guess we'll see what happens in a few weeks.The OCM and CNRC are essentially an automatic yes, it is the board that really makes the decision, but when a person has a waiver and gets a "N", it could be due to the waiver issue or it could be that the waiver isn't an issue but they just have too many people with waivers and can take all of them.
