Hi folks,

I just got a copy of my Receipt notice from my lawyer. My info:

RD: 10/28/03
ND: 10/31/03

My question:

What does the Receipt # mean??

Example: EAC 04-012-XXXXX

My understanding is that EAC stands for the Service Center

First 2 letters is the Year

The next 3 letters are the day of the year when the info was entered in the system

The last 5 letters are a randomly generated case #.

If the above is correct then WHY DID I GET A RECEIPT NOTICE WITH 04 (2004) AS THE YEAR IN THE RECEIPT NUMBER (AS ABOVE) EVEN THOUGH MY APPLICATION WAS RECEIVED IN OCT. '03????

Can anyone shed any light? has anyone received the same type of #??

Thanks.
S
