ROTC Letter

We uploaded the letter under "letter of intent and acknowledgment" also...and still show it pending.
 
Mine finally changed to approved, so it must be taking them a little bit longer since I'm assuming they're being flooded with these letters.

Okay, I am going to get invovled here. I keep hearing attacks against fax machines and honestly in business it is still very important to have. Unless you have a decent scanner which i do, what most people do is take a picture of a document or form and then sent it through text. I got to tell you that when you print something like that out, it comes out looking like crap. So yes, scanning and email is great, but faxes still have a place.

It doesn’t take a decent scanner...Most phones these days can take a quality scan that is every bit as good as what your typical scanner can produce. Faxes are ancient technology, and if you are using a fax to submit documents to Cadet Command you are asking for trouble.
 
Genius Scan, free iPhone app. Produces quality images. Batch mode for multiple pages, or single mode. “Magic edge” to automatically find clean edges. Multiple ways to store or send. Editable. Embedded tutorials.

That’s all I’ve used for business and personal since 2014. I have forgotten how to use the scanner on our multi-purpose printer. Use a dark surface to set items on for best contrast. I’ve used the back of a navy t-shirt, a dark towel, the black front of my laptop case. Typically, from the app, I email the file to my business or personal account, re-name there and attach as needed to email. Genius Scan works with the iPhone Mail app, which you simply link to one of your personal accounts.

I use this for my business travel reimbursement receipts, where clarity is very important, and I can create 1 document with as many receipt images as needed, whether restaurant receipts or full-page hotel bills. Accounts Payable asked me to create an in-house tutorial on using the app, because they were tired of straight photos and lack of clarity from others.

I also use the free Adobe iPhone app when I need to merge scans into 1 file.

It works for me, but may not meet others’ needs.

disagree. Clients send me pictures all the time and when i print them out they look like crap. Maybe there are apps that help with this thing, but honestly the only way i can even read the number on the forms is by looking at it on screen. The print version is bad. This isnt one or two people sending me bad pictures but I would say everyone has every tried sending it to me that way, always comes out bad. Faxes as bad as they are, are still better quality and can be read. I dont recommend sending a fax to Cadet Command, as I would have any form scanned properly. Last thing i would do would be take a picture of it. If you dont believe me, i am more than happy to scan the crappy forms I have received from my clients and send it to you. If you can read any of it after printing it out, I would be amazed
 
DS received email(s) with everything to print out, sign, mark and upload. 5 days later he received the packet. We were already ahead of it. Once printed, signed, scanned and uploaded it took Cadet Command 3 days to approve. We are already scheduled for DoDMERB for Medical and Optical in one week. Pretty quick IMO.
