Two weeks? Many people waited longer than two months.

Kids these day have no patience. :lol:

the background check will be the last to be cleared, prior to it going to Manufacturing, so it could take 4 weeks (or more) before it clears, assuming they have no issues.

Not knowing when you applied, I would say that before I even start to wonder, wait 1 month after DPS receives your packet (not when 1 month after it shows up online), to start wondering.

With that, I wouldn't expect it to clear for another 10 days or so.
Patience is tough, but needed during this process.

When you get your plastic you will then be saying to yourself, "why was I worried or why did I stress"
