Yet another visit to the License Bureau
As jmaynard had to stop in at the License Bureau today I went along to ask about my license plates once again. Jay's issue was readily taken care of, or at least started off. Then I asked about my plates again. I got to explain what happened yet again as the Wednesday crew and the Tuesday crew seem to have zero overlap.
That might have been for the best. After I explained the situation, they checked their system and found that I had indeed applied for the renewal plates in September, but there wasn't a record of anything after that. That triggered a call to St. Paul to find out what was going on. From the sound of things, the paperwork had arrived in St. Paul but was still unprocessed. I was told that the person who took the call would be "walking it across the hall" to be taken care of as this delay has gone on quite long enough. Hopefully I get a new plate (or plates) in a week or two.
I can only wonder how W9SIO has fared. I hope he has had better luck than I have had so far.
