I tried calling about my form 4 yesterday at a little before 3 CST with no answer.  I figured they'd be closed on Thursday and Friday for the Xmas holiday, but not all week.  Are they off all week? What are their normal hours?

Thanks guys.

All I know about is Federal employees have a half day mandated by the commander in chief at noon on Christmas Eve.

Outside of that, I don't work in the branch and don't know their hours.

They were off yesterday because the federal gov't was closed due to the blizzard that hit over the weekend.  They should be in the office today, tomorrow, and Thursday morning.

Thanks Bubbles.  I had no idea about the blizzard.  Not a lot of TV time for me these days.  I kinda miss college, lol.

I called to talk with Andrew Ashton today regarding my F4 but he did not answer.  I left a message.  Never spoke with him before so I dont know how good he is about getting back to people.

All I really would like him to do is approve my F4 since its been pending over 90 days but figured since I hit the 90 day mark I could call him and see what the status is.

C'mon Rob, don't be botherin' Ashton. I just know he's working on my Form 1 today..........yeah right
I've been pending for 140 days and I'll let you know as soon as I receive my stamp. Then you'll only have to wait another 50 days for yours.
I've got to stop watching the Timelines thread, it's depressing.

well he never called me back so I doubt if "I" slowed him down at all.  

hope your F1 clears soon my friend.

question......  has anything from Ashton been approved lately?  I have not seen anyone post in the timelines section anything recently approved with him.

Just an FYI... I work on a FedGov facility as a contractor.  Almost no one will be in the office tomorrow.  The concensus is that it's just not worth coming in for four hours.  Also, lots of folks have "use or lose" annual leave, so there won't be many people in the office next week either.

I've been waiting on the one for my MP5 and HK51 from July with Shippman. Don't feel too bad.
