Good afternoon, I am not yet a Freemason but I have recently submitted my petition and am now waiting for word. I look forward to talking with you and learning from you

This is also the case in FL, as per the book I just read last night..For example, here a pitition must be held over for 28 days from the date it was read before it is voted on.
The Lodge receives this petition at a Stated Communication. It is then referred to an investigation Committee of not less than three Members, who, one month or more thereafter, must return a report in writing.
I think we're in agreement. The question was whether there was a 30 or more day wait between petition and final vote. According to the Florida GL-206 instruction book I quoted, the way it reads to me it seems to be the case.A petition is received and read in lodge....
It is then assigned first to the petitions committee, who after doing their work, it is returned to the WM and if the petitions committee recommends approval it is read in lodge and then assigned to an investigation committee. It is after the investigation committees report that it is voted on.
