Maybe they are saying longer times, so it looks better when they arrive sooner!! Diane

I assume the problem is that more and more people are getting interested in genealogy and therefore more certificates being ordered, maybe they can't keep up with the demand ? I wonder if there's any link to the fact the delays started around the time Ancestry started putting 1871 online lol
