Hello, I am working my way through a C3 application. I put in a request for my grandfather's birth certificate 40 business days ago, and haven't seen anything other than the VitalCheck saying in progress... Does anyone have a timeline or recent experience? I know it says 21-45 business days. I also requested a marriage license; it's not really needed, but I thought it would be nice to have another record listing his place of birth in Canada.

Anyway, does anyone have any idea of how long it will take? Or suggestions? I can't do an in-person request since I live around 18 hours away.

A few years ago, I bought an online orchard/Home Depot tree, it's a Bing with Royal Ann. I can see the graft scar for the Bing, but I don't see any obvious graft for the Royal Ann. None of the documentation for the tree mentions a different rootstock.

Am I right to assume that it's likely on a Bing rootstock with the Royal Anne grafted on the top? I can see a big scar where the Royal Anne attaches to the main trunk, but can't really see a scar for the Bing, and I don't see a grafting scar from top working anywhere on the trunk.

I know this is not ideal. I bought it before I had done much research, and all of my more recent trees have rootstock suggested by my local extension office.
