As promised, an update on my form-1s via trust route. I mailed three form-1s on 10-18-2008 and received two of them "approved" on 12-8-2008. 41 days from mailbox to mailbox. WOW that was fast! I am waiting on the third one with the hope that it will be any day. I am still waiting on a form-4 for a can from 10-6-2008. These were without the citizenship forms. YMMV.
