I had some testing scheduled in a week that the FAA requested for a deferred application, and that appointment is now been canceled. I’ve already requested an extension from the FAA since I’m toward the end of the 30 days their letter gave me, but I don’t realistically see myself getting this done with the restrictions currently in place and forthcoming. The doctor doing the testing is not rescheduling appointments for an indefinite period, and traveling to another seems like a bad idea at this point in time. Looks like a denial is in my future.
How bad is this, exactly? I know I have to report it on every application for the rest of my life, but does it really matter? Does the AME/FAA just ask for an explanation? Will “I didn’t realize a pandemic was going to shut down the country when I applied, so I couldn't get the Cogscreen-AE done,” do for an explanation?
