Today I sent in a congressional inquiry through my state senator. It’s been over 13 months now and I am really curious and have a burning desire as to where I stand with my pending BCNR case. All I’ve gotten from them is an advisory opinion and a docket number. I know I’m not at the 18 month mark yet but I’m not that far off. I wish there was a more easier, expeditious and guaranteed way of getting a response. I’ve done the phone number and never get any response or even a option to leave a message because of the voicemail box being full. The email rarely gives an answer and most go unanswered. What’s the point in having the phone number and a email for the purpose of giving out applicants status updates and then not even bother to respond to it?
