Re: Instructor Background Check - Long Wait?

Thanks for the replies. Looks like it's around 6 months from submission to class... so I'm halfway there :)

Would have been groovy to get in a summer class so I don't have to skip a week of school... but it looks like I will probably get a class in the fall. I guess I will use the time to try to find something besides my little LCR to shoot the test with (assuming we will still have to shoot with both after the change). I have no doubt I can pass with it, but 50 rounds with that little guy is a beating!

Thanks for the info! I suppose that means that my "update" will be getting an email about instructor class (and I can quit checking my status online every couple days!).

Taking that into consideration, I guess I should rephrase my question. Is there a typical time between submitting all the paperwork and getting an email about attending instructor class?

Instructor Background Check - Long Wait?

Hello all,

I was just wondering if there is a "typical" time frame for instructor applicants to wait between submitting everything and the completion of the background check/assignment to instructor class? I applied online at the end of January and got delayed when the CHL 90 forms went AWOL :mrgreen: but I got everything submitted early in March once the form was updated (mailed it on March 6th).

I expected it to take a few months, so I'm not surprised that I'm still "under review" at the 3 month point but I was curious about how long it typically takes. My experience has been that waiting is a bit easier if you have an idea how long you're going to be waiting. If it makes a difference, I do have my NRA certs and included a copy of my credentials when I submitted the CHL-90... so that shouldn't cause any delays.

Thanks!
