My wife has been in pending background check status since 06/04/13 and she has never even had a speeding ticket so there should be no hiccups. Somewhere I read they have to send off request and info to FBI to do the check. So the fact that yours went from pending background check to backround check completed in 24 hours is pretty amazing.

1quick4.6,
Mine is still "Waiting for Documents", so I decided to ignore the 30 day wait to call them. When I talked to the lady at DPS I told her that I wanted to confirm if they had received my documents and make sure that the reason that it still says "waiting for documents" is not because I missed something. She asked for my DL# and then said "We received all of your remaining documents on 5/28 and it looks complete. They are working on it". This makes me beleive that on at least some of the applications they are working on things behind the scences without the site being updated in a timely manner.

Congrats on the changes happening so quickly!

Shipped Everything off on May 7th.

State Recieved it on the 10th.

As of this morning (June 13th) the status shows "Mailed".

Just over a month. Not too bad...
