LTC Waiting Time as of January 12th 2016

[zimmerdesignz]

My father in law submitted his paperwork around January 15th. He picked up a gun on the 29th and the FFL said his DL indicated he had a valid LTC. So no background check was needed. I "guess" the license is happening when you get the e-mail confirmation and the rest of the process is waiting for the physical license to come in the mail? Not sure, but is it plausible. I would not assume this as you have to have the physical license to carry a gun. FYI.

Less than 2 weeks right now sure sounds like something isn't right

Think you might have gotten some wires crossed on what happened. The FFL has no way of knowing if there's a LTC associated with the driver's license. If there is no LTC in hand to present to the FFL, then a background check must be done.

Now, if the FFL is doing things electronically, it may have appeared--to him--that such a check wasn't done. We do it via computer, and if the FBI is on the ball, the entire process takes no more than 90 seconds.

It was more of a subjective assertion. The application was submitted and came back without the need for the background check.

I'm confused on these last several post. How can the FFL possibly know without a actual plastic LTC in hand like
OP "Scott B" said? There has to be some miscommunication somewhere?.?. I could possibly see if the father n law actually has been thru the process & it's been around 30 day mark but 2 weeks..

OMG! I hope that happens for me!!! My fingerprint confirmation email was 15th and app was 1/6/2016!! Maybe it's time to shop for new gun.

Dream on guys. Y'all got some crazy bad intel. It's 45-60 days wait time.

Update! I got my LTC just about 90 days after all paperwork, prints and photos were summitted. Hopefully the times improve soon. Good luck all!!
