Rio Im not arguing with this at all i love the NM system best in the west no doubt. However i agree with others posted behind me and the fact we know its doable for them to complete timely but the release has been highly inconsistent . Your director cant say we have this process nailed and allows faster result and expect people not to set that as the bar. The process didnt get less efficient from last year to this year
In regards to audits not sure how the process is done but from draw deadline app submittal i would think that is when app audits start so that three weeks right there up till harvest deadline to weed out any issues. Of course post draw audit must be done but im pretty sure that inst a manual process.
And based on last year refunds processed the 13th so as an outsider looking in it does appear results are being held in the interest of the almighty dollar, again understandable but id have no problem with them keeping my coin to make intrest money longer to have results faster that is just me and most would not agree with that . Kudos to NM game and fish now give us the results LOL
