6am is when the system updates, no point in checking more than once per day.

My first update came between 8am and 11am.
Background completed came this morning at 6 am.

SigP250, I submitted both mine and my wife's paperwork via US Postal Service on March 25. We still haven't heard anything yet either, but I am hopeful for hearing something this coming week based on updates I have seen on the forum in the last few days. Hang in there a little longer and I bet we both will hear something soon.
