I'm literally in the same boat as you! Actually a day ahead; background check under review since 11/21/16. I called and got the same "high volume" message, but i kept calling back. Eventually after 35 min on hold, a rep answered and said they were still working on my app and could not give me anymore info. Of course i was of the "Thanks for nothing" mindset at that point. I don't know which is worse, the wait for my LTC or the wait for my NFA tax stamps. :cryin
I am hoping that quote notifies both of you.

After doing some reading in a different thread, I came across the fact/point that if you are older, then your application is going to naturally take a little bit longer than some of us youngins. Imagine doing a background check on me (25 years old with literally not even a speeding ticket) and a 45 year old (with a normal ticket here and there). Simply just more information to review. I don't think there is anything to worry about. But I know the frustration, especially when they wont give you any additional information...lol come on, I mean, its your background!!!

Hope there is a positive update in yalls status' soon!

Re: 2017 Wait time

I was completely surprised at the time of this process...in a positive way!

Took Class: 31 October
Submitted Application with all supporting documentation: 9 December (my DL needed to be renewed and had to wait to within one year of expiration, instead of paying $25 at the beginning of Nov and again at the end on my birthday)
Status on DPS changed to "print pending": 30 Dec
Status changed to "mailed": 4 Jan
Received plastic in mail: 9 Jan

Total time from application submission to plastic in hand: 30 days
