I came here to answer computer questions. (This used to say "...and nothing more.")


What I meant was, I don't know how much help I would be with other things... NOT that I would be upset if you asked a non computer question!

I'm M/18, I have had no experience with any jobs, but I had an interview with a security company and I think they hired me. To work in security in NY state, you need a security licence and fingerprinting. The job will ask for a copy of the license application and fingerprint receipt, they did. But here's where I messed up, on the LICENCE application (Not job application)I put the last digit of my social security number incorrectly. While the one on the JOB application is correct. Now I don't want to mess everything up, it's a good job. I have to clear it up before Tuesday because they want me to bring the paperwork along with my SS card. If I don't get it fixed, they're gonna see 2 different SS#'s. I got the fingerprinting done at L1 Enrollment Services, and sent the application through the NY Department of State. I was thinking just call them, but what if one gets fixed and the other one doesn't? And then the possibility that I'll have to pay an extra $137. What can I do to clear this up before Tuesday?

Hi there,

You aren't in any real trouble unless you meant to make a fraudulent application, which you apparently didn't.

You will need to contact the license board and tell them of your mistake. I don't think they will be open on Saturday, but I would call just in case.

I don't know that you will get it fully corrected before Tuesday, but you will get it fixed. Finger-fumbles happen, and I am sure your employer will understand. With that in mind, I wouldn't hesitate to call your employer if the state office isn't open on Saturday, and ask them for advice on what to do. Believe me, they have had this happen before.

I know this can induce panic, but it will resolve, and will end up being not a big deal. I remember making a couple of real winners like this when I was your age, and while I was in an outright panic over them, it was just business as usual for the office folk involved. Don't panic! :-)

Happy Guarding!
