If I see progress soon I'd be more inclined to recommend them.I think this is a fair review and I have had a similar experience, although it took them 3 months to submit my permit while it took only one month on your case.

I certainly don't want to get into the business of being a "bottom feeder" that takes advantage of people, but if there is space in the industry for someone to help people in your situation while making a fair profit, I wouldn't mind learning more and getting involved.If interested, message me.
