Lol, just no. That has no bearing on it or I would never get mine renewed.

Just went to have mine renewed Tuesday. In and out in less than 10 minutes. Guy told me I should receive my card in 1-2 weeks, though not sure if I believe that.

One of my employees got his in a week. Another employee took a month to get his. Just crazy

Really? You can't quite put your thumb on why a government agency is inconsistent?

I had 6 employees and myself go and get new TWICs. Four of them got theirs in 3 weeks, mine came in 6 weeks, and two guys are still waiting.

Did you have to go through the whole application process? That's what I did, because apparently you have to do that after 1 renewal. Original- 5 years, renewal - 3 years then they make you start the application process over which was very fast.

I did my stuff at the place on siegen last Thursday and my card was in the mail Monday. I was shocked. You should call that number. It says to call if you haven't received within 30 days.

Just renewed mine in August and it took 4-5 weeks until it arrived.

It's taking less than a week at the seigen lane location if you're in BR. No lines either.


That's where I did it, I set things up in advance and breezed through at Siegen, probably didn't spend 5 minutes there.

Yes, when I told them I was there to renew she said there is no such thing as renewal anymore - you are applying again for a new card.

Damn - matches the pattern of the other posts of random wait times.
