Hi Ethics,
You should sent all the documents that you already have(including LORs) as soon as possible and apply on sept 1st.. You can send the remaining letters when it becomes available to you..

Yes, I agree with atticus (who seemed very tempted to answer your query smiling face ) , send the documents now. US lor can come later.

can you please clear this for me. after applying to programs and assigning lors, can we change the assignment of lor, ie. remove one and assign another?
On the other hand if instead of 3 lors, we assign only 2, will not the incomplete application be discarded by the program?
or are you suggesting to apply to some programs without the US lor and to others with it?

Transmission of LORs from ERAS to programs is a dynamic process. You can replace or add new LORS at any time, only restriction is that you can send maximum of 4 lors to one program at a given time. But you can always replace the lors at any time. But if the programs have already reviewed you application before you replace your LOR, it would not make any difference.
Sending 2 lors or incomplete applications will not invalidate the application, but it is better to get the complete application through as early as possible, before they start reviewing your application.
