RE:

The following is in response to your inquiry.

It is officer discretion in each individual case whether or not a lateness in filing will be excused. As a general rule we will deny untimely filings-no set grace period.

For future inquires of this nature you may want to utilize our automated phone system by calling (802) 527-3160 for status of a petition or application filed at this center or for live assistance from an Information Officer.
