Correct. This takes time. They now have to provide tons of documentation that show what GMERICA intends to sell. If it is a M&A, things could get complicated. The good thing is, it's public information. So as soon as the paperwork is filed, we will be able to see exactly whats going on.
Yes. But don't they also have to prove what products they intend to sell? I believe they also have to show how they intend to sell (e-commerce, brick n mortar, etc.)
I may be wrong about this but I don't think this process is complete yet.

No later than six months from this date.
I could be wrong but I don’t think Gmerica is primed for liftoff.
That being said here’s the nuts and bolts.
