Just finished this process for my kid. It is simple, in that all you are doing is filling out paper work. However, you must remain patient and be prepared to jump through a bunch of bureaucratic hoops. First, we sent the wrong form of payment- I think we used a personal check which they don't accept. Took several weeks to find this out, get the paperwork back, then refile. This happened a few times with various minor mistakes that made the process restart and racked up lots of delays. It took a little more than a year.
