I've heard of people who's brokers couldn't say for sure what was called and what wasn't for several trading days after expiration, but that's certainly not the norm. The few times I've been assigned, the stock was gone from my account before the opening on the next trading day, which is when my account is normally updated online. Calls which expire worthless have hung around for a day or two longer before they disappear. You probably don't have to worry if the stock closed $1 below the strike price. If it was real close, either above or below, then there'd be uncertainty. If the stock traded for well over $25 today, there would also be uncertainty. But if it was down all day, you're fine. Doug.
