If you look at my post from May 3rd......Thank you! If you look at my post from May 3rd...it starts out "regarding #25"...I actually made my protest a little less complicated than that original post - I protested by stating that none of the answers were correct because the question does not state the actual release date. The question only states the entered date of Feb 1st. The regs to support this question are all based off of release date which is not provided. The answer which Customs gave was based off of the feb 1st entry date however the question should have stated "entered and released". So basically I stated that the question did not provide enough information to answer the question.<br />I didn't try to prove my answer because I would have had to use the word assume and in the end that is what you had to do w/ custom's answer...assume that feb 1st was the release date. How did you argue it? How many did you miss it by? I also protested #40 but they only gave me #25.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2122186347905659525.post-41733152557241002392010-09-02T17:29:18.335-04:002010-09-02T17:29:18.335-04:00If any one else has received theirs back as well, ...If any one else has received theirs back as well, could you post some of the questions you where granted?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2122186347905659525.post-84320306288798047792010-09-02T15:56:53.979-04:002010-09-02T15:56:53.979-04:00Congrats on passing with protest question #25!

I sent my protest via UPS on Friday, May 28th to the address indicated on the Customs letter (DC address). However, after the holiday, I tracked my shipment to make sure that it arrived and was signed for. When tracking through UPS it showed the delivery address as "Capitol Heights, MD". So, I called the broker compliance branch in DC and they explained that most of the mail is diverted to another location for screening and then forwarded to the correct address.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2122186347905659525.post-52143056984760983252010-05-27T12:20:05.635-04:002010-05-27T12:20:05.635-04:00Wizard on Appeals
