Good for them. The process was inefficient prior to COVID and is just as inept now.
I’m not sure where you’re getting your information from, regardless, it’s unacceptable that they are the only Department that gets to keep renewing the never ending “Covid Pass”. Covid is not new, the holidays being in December are nothing new. We don’t get to use it as an excuse but good on them and their transparency.
In the meantime, I’ll continue to put my life on hold, pass on job offers, continue to pay two mortgages and submit congressional inquiries until we get some answers. I’m sure the taxpayers would be please to know how much money is wasted paying SM’s that are forced to wait out this process due to absurd and systemic and inefficiencies.
If you want to advocate for the VA, I’d suggest not doing so in a forum of people who are feeling the real life effects of this ridiculously drawn out process.
