Yeah, I put my mother's address since my home of record is an apartment address in PA where no one I know currently lives. I don't know if I can make a 10 day turnaround with my mother forwarding that mail to an APO address in UK. I will worry about that later though. Right now, I am just hoping they approve my application, because it is kind of stretching the rules into a grey area.

I don't think this means anything. I think they pulled the EX report immediately when I clicked the 'submit' button because thats when it started asking questions to verify identity related to my report. But, yes, maybe the info I put in passed some sort of cursory computer-based check. I think they are going to manually review everything within the next 3 days though before giving me a membership number or reason for denial. I do, however, see 2 soft-pulls on the EX report:
... so I'm not sure why the pulled it 2 times. Maybe one is for the manual review.
I just called them again and they confirmed that my application was approved! woo hoo! Unfortunately, they did not give me my member number and told me to wait until I get it in the mail. So it is a good thing that I used my mother's address and she can forward that mail to me. Awesome. Thanks for your help jd!

I don't think PSECU is going to close my account if they get the signature card late. It is much easier for my mother to just mail it to me. I am not rushing to open a credit card or get any kind of loan, so I can wait. The sole purpose of having this account, at this point in time, is to get free EX FICO scores.
