Jim, K6JAT informed me it was covered in the 3/19 ARRL newsletter, so I forwarded that portion to the members That should answer the question for now. For those that need something to copy and for your constituents, here is the exact text: The ARRL Volunteer Examiner Coordinator (VEC) has been dealing with a higher-than-normal volume of emails and phone calls and is asking for members’ patience as they attempt to answer everyone’s questions as promptly as possible. “There has been some significant disruption to VE exam session schedules, given the restrictions imposed on gatherings in many locales,” Shelley pointed out. “As with our employees, the health and safety of our Volunteer Examiners is a top priority, and we have informed our VEs that they need to follow their local community’s guidelines and then use their best judgement when deciding whether to conduct, postpone, or cancel an exam session.” This, of course was put out before the HQ shutdown. Barry, has anything changed in this since 3/19? Is the ARRL still sending out and processing exams at all, or are they just delayed? Is the FCC still processing applications? 73; Mike W7VO

Barry;
Several people have sent me e-mails wondering what the official status of the ARRL VE program is. In other words, are VE packages still be processed, in either direction? (Exams sent out, and completed exams processed?). Is the FCC still processing results and issuing licenses? If they are still being processed, what is the expected delay time?
Thanks!
