thanks to all who posted and I understand how frustrating it is to read posts on here from others that got their plastic in a much shorter time frame than us..I did finally get mine in the mail today

and it only took 85 days!?!

I did the online application and submitted all the required paperwork..I also have a clean record and have no idea why mine took so much longer than other posters on this site that sent theirs in after mine

I am very happy to finally have it in hand and hope all of you get yours soon!
