Do you count weekends as part of 57 days?cstep wrote:Today - Apr 26 - Status is "Mailed"cstep wrote:Today - Apr 24...57 days after I submitted all of my paperwork...my background check finally flipped to green.

Yes, I was counting weekend days. If I got to the point of having to call, I expected that they might come back with "60 business days". Luckily, it never got to that point. Reading through this thread it doesn't seem like there's much rhyme or reason to how long it takes to get this done.thinkmac wrote:Do you count weekends as part of 57 days?cstep wrote:Today - Apr 26 - Status is "Mailed"cstep wrote:Today - Apr 24...57 days after I submitted all of my paperwork...my background check finally flipped to green.

I am going on 62 days (44 business days) with this background check.
I would email them to check on your status or call them and ask do they need anything else. You are over 60 days now it can't hurt nothing.thinkmac wrote:Do you count weekends as part of 57 days?cstep wrote:Today - Apr 26 - Status is "Mailed"cstep wrote:Today - Apr 24...57 days after I submitted all of my paperwork...my background check finally flipped to green.

I actually emailed them once before, and they told me to wait 8 business weeks starting on Feb 23rd. So I doubt I can do much until 8 business weeks have passed.Allons wrote:I would email them to check on your status or call them and ask do they need anything else.

Here we go, the website finally shows a status update. Looks like this:King77 wrote:King77 wrote:Hello, New to the site...the info here is amazing.
Here's my timeline
Online App done: 4/11/18
Fingerprint (idéntico) done : 4/16/18
LTC completed and submitted : 4/21/18
Plan on spending the wait researching holsters and belts
Update: I got an email from someone at DPS to let me know they received all my docs and that it can take up to 60 days. I checked the DPS site a few hours later and still don't see a status.
