MYTH BUSTED: 3rd Time Is NOT the Charm!!!

Well, March referrals have come and gone. We were not included again for the 3rd time. They arrived on March 3rd and it has taken me this long to write the post. That means we (November 2006 Chinese heritage expedited LIDs) have been skipped 3 months in a row!!! At least I'm not alone...but I hate that my new friends have been skipped as well. Can any other LID group top that??? I hope not...cause it really bites the big one! (Oops, actually they can.... while wallowing in our pity party I just remembered the a few Oct Chinese heritage expedited LIDs that were skipped as well.) I have heard of NSN LIDs being skipped but it seems to get resolved within a month. We have been skipped 3 months and have no answers, no predictions, and no idea what is going on with our timeline. Since I am not getting any answers from the professionals, I opened a poll in the upper left corner of the blog. So be sure to cast your vote/opinion of when Nov 2006 Chinese expediteds LIDs will get their referrals.
This update is brought to you via blog from Referral Purgatory, Venice, CA.
Fingers crossed for Better Luck Next Time!!! : )

Referral purgatory, so funny! At least it's not limbo. As for us 3/06 folks, I fear we have settled somewhere down around the 5th ring of hell.
I'm sorry it's so up-in-the-air, but I'm voting for April for you.
Have a great trip!

Hey Di,
I typed in limbo but it just sounded like too much fun...so in went "referral purgatory." And you 3/06-ers ARE in the 5th ring of hell...hopefully to move up to referral purgatory around autumn??? *big sigh*
Thanks for voting!

I am so sorry you were skipped. We had 5 people with the same LID date as us, only two of us got ours. The others waited months. I am sure this makes it so hard. Hang in there and you will get it soon!
