Ok well I'm at day 66 and I just called again to check up on the status. I was told my background check went through and that my file needed to be signed out on. She took my number down and told me that she would try to get the signature done today. I don't know how long it'll take for me to get the license in the mailbox, but I sure am glad this is another step forward.
