    I guess all the holdup is Done. I panicked after reading all the posts about Twics being out 3 months so I drove up to Tampa and applied a couple weeks ago.

    They said if you do not received it after 12 weeks call. I reieved it in the mail after 2 Weeks.

    I only applied for mine because my work background is a little sketchy and figured it would help with getting hired in the future.

    You don't receive a TWIC card in the mail. Something isn't right

    That was quick - I think I wasited 6 weeks or so. Good for you. Now get TWIC ing, or TWERking - or whatever one does with the silly pice of plastic.

    I haven't used mine yet - @Old Man refuses to run with filthy foreigners.

    I believe you guys but this is strange. It sort of goes against what a TWIC card is. When I get mine renewed I have to show up in person to pick it up. My picture is matched to me and so are my finger prints matched to what is on the card. Maybe the fact that I have a security clearance I have to take extra steps???
