I tweaked the code to pull from Evernote to look like this:

tell application "Evernote"
	set noteList to selection
	set currentEvernote to item 1 of noteList
	set theTitle to title of currentEvernote
	set theTaskNote to note link of currentEvernote
	if (theTaskNote is missing value) then
		synchronize
		repeat 6 times
			delay 0.25
			set theTaskNote to note link of currentEvernote
		       	if (theTaskNote is not missing value) then
				exit repeat
			end if
		end repeat
		if (theTaskNote is missing value) then
			display dialog "Sync was needed and is taking a while; dismiss me when sync is complete"
			set theTaskNote to note link of currentEvernote
		end if
	end if
	if (source URL of currentEvernote is not missing value) then
		set theTaskNote to source URL of currentEvernote & (return) & (return) & theTaskNote
	end if
end tell

This initiates a sync if the note link doesn't exist yet, checks for 1.5 seconds to see if the link was created, and then prompts with a dialog if the sync is still not finished. Seems to work pretty well. I couldn't find any way to detect if the EN sync finished, and it's not a good idea to loop forever, hence the dialog as a failsafe.

(I also changed the code to not use system events to copy the note and link. For my purposes, I don't need to copy the selected text to OF.)
