Here's my chrono so far:
Online Application 9/1/11
Class Completed 10/1/11
Packet Mailed 10/2/11
Fingerprints Taken 10/6/11
Fingerprints: Complete 10/12/11
Background Completed: 10/18/11
Manufacturing Pending (as of 10/19/11)
So, for all you others, about two weeks after the later of 'packet' or 'fingerprints.' I'm not sure it would have affected the timing if I'd done the fingerprints before I took the course and mailed the packet, but my guess is that that would have sped things up. I imagine that the background check flows solely from the fingerprinting.
here's my chrono:
26SEP - Online Application
30SEP - Fingerprints
01OCT - Class
03OCT - Mailed Packet
12OCT - DPS waiting for material
13OCT - Background Check: Under review
16OCT - Background Check: Completed
17OCT - Manufacturing Pending
18OCT - Manufactured
19OCT - Mailed
I'm assuming it only takes a few days to manufacture.. yours might actually ship late this week or early next week! i read on the september board that someone got theirs mailed on on a saturday.
like everyone says.. there is no rhyme or reason behind it!
the fingerprint/backgorund correlation actually makes sense. i wonder if that is the deciding factor?
