seems they 'make it up' as they go....?

TThere seems to be a fair bit of admin work and multiple sign-offs required after security checks and referee interviews before the licence is made "current". It may be your security was “passed”, but your licence not necessarily made current. I'd call the arms office and seek clarification. Also, keep chasing the buggars - was the only way I was able to make any progress!
