Everything looks ok for task 1 but the instructions for task 2 are :

Finally, add a # symbol and lastName in uppercase to the end of the userName string. The final value of userName is "23188XTR#SMITH".

You do not need to declare the variable a second time. You should be able to just update the declaration statement with the new criteria. You are also missing the # requirement for the task.
