You should receive a letter within a few weeks containing a pin #. This will allow you to track your progress online.

The "track the status" consists of it saying "processing application" up until you are about to get it...its not very detailed unfortunately.

DONT DO IT!! You'll spend every waking moment hitting reload. Just forget about it until you get it in the mail. Then it will be an awesome surprise.
