My wife's hasent moved either. But I still check the mail everyday in hopes that they just forget to update the system and mail it anyway. It keeps my fragile mind occupied! :clapping:

Next it will have these two blocks.

Background Check : Under review
Concealed Handgun License : Print pending completion of application review

But don't get your hopes up to high when you see this, it still takes awhile. Mine has not changed since 5/2 when they first made the change.

redlin67, your situation was a bit unique due to the FBI stuff going on with the Census workers... hopefully that log jam has now broken and things will get back on track. :hurry:

Might want to check to see if you changed to manufacturing. Mine changed today and ours both went to review about the same time.
