I was aware of the backlog due to increased SAI requests and low staffing.
My next SAI (renewal) took 2 weeks.
Hang in there and best of luck getting back quickly.
I sure hope this continues. My paperwork is in DC at the Air Surgeon's office. My issue is a mis-diagonsis for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. I received the 30-day update from AMAS yesterday.
