It must be a Cali thing. I was shocked I got it so soon after they charged my card. I thought it would be atleast another 2 weeks.
I hope you get your card soon

It also has to do with your location. Its going to take longer to mail something to Cali than it is to Maryland. I got charged on May 1st. I'm still waiting. GRRR!!! Chicago's mail system SUX though.

I had a student pro card...but never finished my training so it expired. I'm working as a freelance right now, I have business cards & a portfolio of my work...I'm going to ask 2 of my recent clients to write me up letters and I'm going to send pictures of them with it. Do you think that would be enough to qualify? My business cards & 2 recom. letters with pictures of my clients? Thanks! =o)

This may have already been stated earlier in the thread, I read through and didn't see it but maybe I missed it.
I called the membership line the other day and was informed that first time applicants may no longer fax in their application. They must mail in hard copies. So, there's that!

Has anyone used their Pro card with additional percent off? Example- 15% plus my PRO card? Does that work? Lol.

I have business cards but as far as the client letters what kind of wording is required? I never knew I could get a MAC Pro card from just being a freelance make-up artist of wedding/prom's, that will make my fiance's wallet very happy! (and keep my fiance from having a budget heart attack since we're saving for our wedding for next May and my dress cost 2k)
I wish they still took faxed in stuff
but I guess I can do 2 day express mail on it or something.

Congrats.. You'll love the PRO site.
I live in NJ and it took about 2 to 3 weeks for it to come, but it all depends on the mail too. Which can be at a snails pace sometimes. They should email you your number so you can login to the site or place phone orders..

I thought they didn't allow them to be faxed any longer or has that changed again? I sure hope so! That would make it so much easier/faster living in Michigan!

I know that some people said they faxed theirs in with no problem so I thought I'd give it a try before mailing it off...I didn't have any problems besides the fact that I had 2 fax it twice because they didn't get it the first time! Hope you don't have any problems faxing yours in! I'm so excited to get my card!!!

Thanks! I faxed in a bridal contract, my business card, my photo ID, one letter of reference with a picture of a client I just did for prom, and was approved about 2 days after I faxed it...I think you'll be fine even without pictures!

I don't have the pictures from when I did them since I had no camera at that time do you think that will matter? |

I didn't really have a bridal contract made up since most of the people are just ones I know from work/friends! I will have to get one of those made up though because I definitely want to get more serious into freelance stuff now that I more time from my full time job during the summer months and of course it's wedding season!
