Shouldn't be too long now...

Application status finally changed today to "Backgroud check under review" :woohoo

I am new to the forum and certainly have appreciated the posts, opinions, and advice that I've read.

Thanks,

I checked mine today. Haven't checked since last week but mine also says "background check under review".

Feels good to see another milestone passed!

How in the name of Pete did you manage to hold off checking for that long? Coma? Jail time? Lost in the wilderness?

LOL!!! I was actually buried with work and such, more so than usual. I am now overcome with the urge to check frequently as I can't wait to see it update to manufacturing and eventually mailed!

Hope its sooner than later!

It makes it harder to wait when I am seeing a few people who submitted everything the same time I did and they are in manufacturing/mailout phase and I'm still in BG review. Hard not to check it 10 times a day ;-)

Congrats I got the same status update today too. I know it won't be there but I can't to get to check the mail. I have to agree with others this may be the even worse than waiting for status updates, good news is its only a matter of days now.

Uuuuggghhhhh, this is frustrating. I'm still waiting for my background review to finish. The person in charge of my app is probably addicted to playing Solitaire on their smartphone.
