Just checked the ASP site again and my status has been updated. Yesterday it changed from "License expires March 10, 1013" to "Pending Background Check Results". Shortly after that, it changed again to "License issued, waiting of printing.'' They also sat I could expect to receive it by mail in the next 2 weeks. Hallelujah !! Grand total, 8 weeks from the day the check cleared my bank until being informed it had been issued. My status went from "Pending" to " "Issued" in less than 2 days. Anyway, I'm glad THAT is over. Now comes hawking the mail box every morning. The dogs always warn me when the Mail truck pulls up. For a while, all three of us will greet the postman!

EDIT to say: License arrived by USPS at 11:30 AM 3/28/13. I'm leaning to the right again!

Maybe chiming in a bit late here but wanted to share my recent experience with ASP for renewal. I've been a permit holder from week one so I've renewed a few times now. Never had an issue until this year. I sent in my renewal 2 months ahead of time (January for March renewal) thinking the uptick in applications might be slowing the process down and I didn't want to be late. Two weeks after mailing the ASP website showed "background check pending". Expiration date came and went, same thing. I called and left three messages with ASP with no response from them. I finally called and asked to speak to someone instead of leaving a message. I was told it was in process. One week later I received my new card in a plain envelope, no cover, no disguising what was inside. Just a plain envelope with my address hand written on it. Maybe they are backed up, I don't know. But that seemed odd to me. Oh well, bureaucracy at its finest. At least I got the new permit.

I paid for my state fee online on Feb. 5th then sent off my certificate and fingerprints the next day. My status has been "Pending background check" for a good 4 or 5 weeks now. Is it normal for a background check to take this long. I have worked in private sector security and law enforcement before and the only thing that would be on my record are a couple traffic tickets from about 10 years ago. What is the hold up?

I'd like to know the same thing. next Tuesday will be 10 weeks , I know background checks are instant now, doesn't take them 10 minutes. do they wait 4 weeks after they put you in the system for your local chief of police or sheriff to say ya or nay?

The State has 120 days ~ 4 months to issue or deny an application. Right now they're going through 5-6k a month. It's background checks, sending prints to the FBI, waiting on that return, and waiting on contact from local PD/S.O. office if necessary.
