The law book clearly states 60 days in writing. That's directly from the current law book (CHL-16) which you can pull up & read. GC 411.177, page 11.

Actually, it is 90 days from the acceptance of the documents until they are required to either issue or decline your application.

Please forgive the lack of references, but the process is summarized like this:
1. The time line begins the day that RDS receives the last of your documents. For all practical purposes, that is the day you receive email confirmation of documents received.
2. They then have up to 30 days to send it to the "designee" to perform a background check.
3. The designee has until 60 days after RDS received your documents to return the completed background check.
4. RDS has 60 days FROM THE DATE THAT THE APP WAS GIVEN TO THE DESIGNEE to either issue or decline the license. (This is the most commonly misunderstood step. The 60 days start when they send it for BG check, not the day they receive it from you)

Does this mean it will take up to 90 days, no.
Does it mean it is possible to all goes through in a week? Possibly yes, but don't hold your breath.
Does this mean they will sit on it for 30 days before sending to the designee? No, but Remember that these are people too, and they are overwhelmed right now.
Does this mean they will hit the 90 day deadline for me app? Most likely yes, but again, we are talking about a group of people with the most applications to process since just after 9-11.

I feel frustrated just like everyone else but it really doesn't matter LOL. You can't do anything about it but be polite and wait.

I called yesterday and was told they still haven't touched it. Maybe it would be in background check next week.

They are probably just kidding. ....'I'm sure... It's probably in your mailbox today,,
How is that possible? Some people submitted well after you & they have theirs.
I do not understand none of their process, nothing is consistent..
