That's fast. I mailed off completed app 2/13 and I'm still in background check. Took 8 weeks to even get an update.

That's crazy. I was only 38 days from online app/emailed docs to plastic in hand on my renewal. The timelines are all over the place and just don't make any sense.

I called today. The guy was as helpful as the status update web page. He said to me when did you submit your documents? I said I had emailed them in to them mid march. Which he replied thats weird. He could not tell me why they have not updated my status. :banghead:

That is strange. Should have been able to pull everything up no problem. I called before mine was updated just to make sure everything went through electronically ok. He was able to see everything.
