Does calling the CFO over and over to check on the status of your application expedite the process or a waste of time in everyone's experience?

How often? Did you answer yes to one of the questions that might slow your application? (mental health, etc)

If you don't have any outstanding issues with your application, I don't see it accomplishing much.

Every 2 to 3 weeks, because they are slower than sloths. Just trying to get them to expedite things.
