Guys/Gals

I got a job offer in Calgary. The problem I have is that they want me to start ASAP and I don't have my passport back. Do you think LA will expedite it if I send them a letter requesting to please expedite along my job offer? ???

I just got a call from LA VO. They lost my Height and Eye Color chart and asked me to fax it, which I did.

So, I am hoping they will send the passports today. Any idea how long it takes for US Postal Service to reach from USA to Canada ?

It is still In Process though the lady I talked to said she is going to post it today. If you recall, I need it by December 4th, which is only 9 business days away.
