I have a quick question about my handicap. I have a GHIN and have put in about 7 rounds of golf into the computer. I was told that after 5 rounds I would have a Handicap. What is going on?

I think I figured it out. I haven't passed a revision date yet. 8/1 is the next day. I got my GHIN on the last revision date, 7/15. Is this why?

That should be why, but I just re-upped my handicap after letting it lapse in 2008, and I'm having some trouble.

I got my GHIN account from the course I usually play on July 9. I entered the previous 8 rounds I had played this year plus the round I played that day for a total of 9 rounds. On July 22, the day of Massachusetts' revision, I entered another 5 scores. When I check online, it only shows the first 9 rounds. Fine, so I missed the revision cutoff then other 5 rounds. But my handicap is still listed as NH.

Most likely.

Is your handicap accurate and other than NH when viewing from your home course computer?

Could be a matter of transmission frequency, from the local computer to the GHIN servers. Our home club synchronizes hourly, but I've seen other clubs do it weekly or only on revision dates.
