You pretty much have to type it, serve it and drive it to the WCAB and stamp it in the same day you get it in the mail because it typically takes 4 days from the date the WCAB mailed it to reach your box. Counselor Lupoff is correct, 8 CCR 10453 gives you only 5 days after the WCAB 'serves' (mails) the notice of hearing to you.
