WOHOO today it finally happened. Sometime between the 15th time I checked last night and this morning I show Application Completed - license issued or certificate active. Now to wait for the mailman hehe.

Just wanted to add my timeframe for reference. That makes 88 days total from day mailed to day issued. However it would have been faster. I was delayed about 30 days due to having to apply for a new passport to submit. This took 4 or 5 weeks. I was born overseas and didn't have a certificate of naturalization or a consular report of birth abroad. A current passport was good enough to get the ball rolling again. So if you were born overseas don't repeat my mistake send as many of the documents mentioned as possible.

That tracks close to my numbers minus the 30-day delay. Mine was 47 days door-to-door. I ran across the requirement for the certificate / passport prior to sending off my application.

Congratulations! You should have it next week.

Just for reference Im finally legal woohoo. Just got my plastic in the mailbox. Wally Walk still to come.

Congrats Big Dom. Welcome to the fraternity!

A long wait but worth it. Enjoy your walk and welcome to the club

Thanks all didnt make it out to wally world today but did get out to Hastings and was carrying. Felt totally natural and didn't really think about it much at all. Felt good actually and was totally without incident. I'll do a proper wally walk when I get a chance but I can see this is not going to be a problem at all.

Congrats! I had the same issues not being born here but sent passport and naturilization papers and still waiting! I'm into over 2 months now. Ugh!

Ouch good luck. You should be getting it right around the corner. If its been more than 60 days I'd give them a call. They are very friendly and usually helpful. Sometimes a call can kickstart things it seems. If it werent for the delay waiting for the passport I would have been right around the 60 days.
