The timeline I posted is the actual timeline, and like I stated in my post, email them at that link on the website and ask them to please expedite your license. They will do that, the lady I talked to the only time I called stated that the one reason they are taking so long is that the applications get sent off to the background check personnel in large groups, therefore when that group is completed then it moves on to the next step in the process. In other words, if your application completed the background check, you have to wait until the others are approved or denied to move forward in the process. If you email them and communicate with them, they will pull your application from that group and do it individually which will result in yours being finished quicker. If you don't communicate with them, they will just put yours aside and must finalize the others in the same stack as yours which from what I'm seeing on here and reading on the others posts seems to be the problem. Communication is key.

I have emailed them 3 times over the last 2 month and have never got any reply.
