Hi,
Anyone have a sense of how long the Fingerprints: "Under Review" phase lasts?
Cheers

For me, the fingerprints was several days after all of the initial stuff went green. I'm wanting to see it was at least 5 days or so. Then the background was a couple more days after that.

Mine changed from manuf. Pending to just manuf. Also, guess that is one step closer.

Yep. Friday evening. I was surprised because that was two update changes in the same day. Maybe they'll get mailed out Monday?

Don't panic, I am an early January and I am still waiting on the completion of my background checks and I already have NR permits from Va/Fl .

I'm jealous of some of you January guys too...but congrats!!!
Just waiting on background to be done. Was hoping it wouldn't take too long.
I've had a previous CHL and I work for a Federal Law Enforcement agency in an administrative capacity....thought that would speed things up. Guess not. :)

I sent my application in last week and it got there on Wed the 19th. Just curious. How long did it take you guys to get an update on the site? It still say's there are waiting on my application but I know they have it. I've seen where for some it's never updated but it seems like for most lately it is updating. I'm not very patient but I don't want to start calling them either.

I think a few more days and you should see some greens appearing on you applacation, mine took over a week to start any movement on the website. There does seem to be lag time for the updates to appear.

there doesn't seem to be any real consistency regarding the DPS' website. some people have updates appear pretty quickly, others have gotten their CHL in the mail while the online status still showed that their background checks were under review. mine still says "under review" but for all i know my plastic could be sitting in the mailbox when i get home from work today. i've gotten past the stage of checking the web site every day and have just started looking for an envelope from the DPS every evening when i check the mail.
