Msg ID: 2766944 Special Issuance (Medical) +0/-0

So a question for you folks who have been through the Special Issuance process.  I'm one of those guys whose medical got reviewed by the folks in OKC, who then sent it to DC for final signoff and my return to flying.
My question is really only for those people whose paperwork went to DC.  Those of you who got allowed back to work by OKC, congratulations. 
But if your file went to DC, how long did DC have it before they gave you a decision?  There's a job waiting on this, but it won't wait forever.

Don't know about DC but I have been on a yearly SI approved by OKC for several years. On average it takes 8 to 9 monthes every year for the final approval. Like many Government agencies the Aeromedical Certification Branch is understaffed and overwhelmed with work!

they called it a "branch" but it's now called the Aerospace Medical Certification Division.

why do you keep insisting on calling them the wrong name.

So by your own omission, your reply cannot answer the op's question. 🤦🏼‍♂️
