<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Numbers, post: 2788643, member: 11668&quot;]Right.&nbsp; Legislation that was passed in 2012 removed the requirement for Senate confirmation of a whole bunch of relatively minor federal officials, including the Treasurer.</p><p><br /></p><p>The new Treasurer, Jovita Carranza, was sworn in on June 19, so both new signers are now in office.&nbsp; Typically, from the time the new signatures are available, it takes the BEP about three months to produce new printing plates and get the first denomination of the new series into production.&nbsp; So I&#039;m guessing the first Series 2017 currency will be printed in September, plus or minus a month.</p><p><br /></p><p>Of course, after those first printings, it&#039;ll take weeks to months for any of the new currency to reach circulation.&nbsp; And it&#039;ll take the better part of a year for Series 2017 notes to become readily available in all parts of the country.&nbsp; So if you&#039;re unlucky and the early shipments of Series 2017 don&#039;t end up in your neck of the woods, it could easily be 2018 before you see the new signatures on your spending money.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
