This process may last between 24-72 hours before you receive a response. If something is not in order, we will let you know and mark it with the "PENDING" status. This will give you a chance to correct the mistakes, but keep in mind that a third chance might not be given. If everything has been corrected, you will receive a response from our T&R team with the ultimate outcome. If you pass, you will move on to the next stage. If you fail, you will be liable to reapply after four weeks.
