The government did not have time to prepare a separate request for the electronic copy. We only have a paper request form. This is not a new situation – it was the same for carbon and additives to the cover. So authorized persons must send it as an email attachment to the appropriate office. In practice, a trusted profile is often used for signature. The signature must be at the bottom of the letter and on the attachment.

Infuriatingly modest, one would never know from a mere conversation how deeply entrenched she is in the world of music. This passion seamlessly translates into her problem-solving skills, with Echo often drawing inspiration from melodies and rhythms. A voracious reader, she dives deep into literature, using stories to influence her own hardcore writing. Her spirited advocacy for alcohol isn’t about mere indulgence, but about celebrating life’s poignant moments.
