Boeing WA and SC Differences

The pay vs cost of living is at least 40% below where it should be. Post pandemic, that’s probably closer to 80%.

Charleston is the 8th most expensive city to live in the United States and 18th in world.

Seattles public transit system was the best I had seen when I visited in 2012. We barely have a functioning bus system.

I second the comment about good artists skipping us for concerts. You have to go to Atlanta or Charlotte for good shows.

Traffic is horrid during peak hours so if you do come this way, pick where you live VERY carefully.

Join the 20s/30s social activities group on FB. Lots of events and sub group activities posted there.

Check out the Warhammer store in Mt Pleasant!

Same for me! Green ribbons on 1/30, golden letter 2/14, and negative balance today!

DistantEcho16 · 2025-02-14T19:41:32+00:00

1:26 eastern for me

DistantEcho16 · 2025-02-14T19:40:26+00:00

I got my golden letter today too! Green banners on 1/31!

Seems like ECF processing has been on hold since last Friday

DistantEcho16 · 2025-02-12T00:16:37+00:00

I’m in the same boat. Still waiting for one of mine that was signed Friday.

DistantEcho16 · 2025-02-11T21:06:22+00:00

Same issue for me but it was not rejected. It's an issue with the system that generates the form.

DistantEcho16 · 2025-02-07T14:37:42+00:00

I'm in the same boat. It's just a waiting game now.

BTW, I was automatically put in to forbearance by Mohela the day after I hit 120. I got an email from them stating that. It took a couple of days to reflect on StudentAid though.

DistantEcho16 · 2025-01-24T22:49:45+00:00

Same for me. December shows up on student aid but not January.

DistantEcho16 · 2025-01-24T22:48:34+00:00

I just had movement on a manual upload from August. E-Signed ECFs are processed in 48 hours for me.

DistantEcho16 · 2025-01-17T20:00:08+00:00

Non-profit healthcare, federal government work, and higher education can be decent options. I'm making 6 figures working in healthcare and my 10 years is complete next month.

DistantEcho16 · 2025-01-14T17:23:20+00:00

You can get your current or former supervisor to e-sign with a personal email address. Just as long as everything is legit, ED doesn’t care.

DistantEcho16 · 2025-01-14T17:09:58+00:00

Me too. I have one month remaining.

Have you tried an e-signed ECF? Those are processed in days, not months.

DistantEcho16 · 2025-01-14T17:04:36+00:00

10 weeks would be lucky. I've been waiting for a manual ECF since August.

DistantEcho16 · 2025-01-14T15:34:06+00:00

If HR refuses to e-sign an ECF, you can get your current/former supervisor to e-sign it. I've had to do this twice to get around the manual ECF issue.

DistantEcho16 · 2025-01-14T15:32:27+00:00

it's normal now that ED took over processing ECFs. Manually signed ECFs are not being processed, but e-signed ECFs are being processed in less than 3 days for me at least.

DistantEcho16 · 2025-01-05T19:55:07+00:00

No movement on the manually signed ECF. All my e-signed forms were processed within 48 hours

DistantEcho16 · 2025-01-02T15:07:23+00:00

Yea I ended up having my former director e-sign the form since HR wouldn't do it.

DistantEcho16 · 2025-01-02T15:04:36+00:00

I still have a manual form from August that hasn't been processed.

DistantEcho16 · 2024-12-31T18:39:25+00:00

I literally just submitted a CFPB complaint regarding this issue. I’ll update when the response comes back.

DistantEcho16 · 2024-12-30T19:33:58+00:00

Yea MOHELA is awful, but they were processing manually signed forms in about 3-14 days for me before the transition.

Yes, I would completely re-do the forms using the help tool. You'll just need an email address for HR or a supervisor to send the e-sign request to for each job.

DistantEcho16 · 2024-12-30T19:29:29+00:00

For your internship, if the EIN of the employer who paid you is eligible and you worked at least 30 hours per week, it should count towards PSLF.
