[Gunner4640]

I guess it is the luck of the draw on who processes your application! Some people get the job done and some drag their feet and spend too much time in the break room!!! My background should be spotless! But people who updated to background check after me are already being printed! Who knows??? My day is coming!!!

I know its tough but the length of the background check depends on several things - not just arrest/conviction history. Mine, for example, includes four addresses in two states which I know will make my background take longer than someone who has lived in one place for the last 10 years.

It will happen - I have to keep telling myself that too!

I tell myself the same thing everyday!! I have lived in the same place for last 16 years!

I was only in background check for about 3-4 days.

I think DPS system updates every 48hrs, I don't think DPS works on Saturday. The Sunday updates we get must be from Friday.

FYI, Mine did indeed update to BG complete and Manufacturing Pending this past Saturday morning May 11th around 730am. I have been checking every day, had no updates friday or sunday.

There is no telling with DPS, I assume they are off on the weekend cause my BG check was under review Fri and Sat, Sunday it updates to complete.

For those who have been in BG status for a while you are not alone. I can't remember when I finally got put into the system but I have been in BG status for 2-3 weeks.

Are the updates from the previous day? I was in manufacturing pending yesterday and manufacturing today. Does it mean that my plastic was made yesterday will be put in the mail pile today?
