Yep. Because of so much credit card fraud, DS and lots others, if the addresses don't match, will ask for added proof. It can be a pain but protects them and you from fraudulant charges. It'll work out.

I'm still waiting for the payment to go through. My boyfriend is going to wire transfer the money instead.

That's actually what I ended up doing, DS was really smooth with the whole process. I've had some wire transfer nightmares in the past and I'd say it was one of the easiest I've ever done with DS.

Honestly I am not sure, I tried to find that specific record and I couldn't without deeper digger than I had time to do. I want to say it was only a couple of days though, any longer and I think I would have clearly remembered it.
