Current LTCH Wait

[dirtybird]

It would be the moment I post that I'm still waiting for approval, ISP says I'm approved on the website. Whoever processes licenses must check the forum... lol.

Congrats! And welcome to ingo!

Applied: 9/19/15
Finger Prints: 9/21/15
Local Fee Paid 9/21/15

UPDATE
Pending ISP approval 10/9. Not bad compared to what others had to endure. Will update when I have it in the mail. Hopefully early next week.

Mine expired, had to renew it. Went with Lifetime this time

Applied: 9/17/15
Electronic fingerprints: 9/18/15
Local Fee: 9/21/15

Pending ISP approval since 9/22/15

I heard doing electronic fingerprints cuts the wait down to less than 2 weeks. That is not the case, I'm sitting at 3 1/2 weeks since ISP got it.
*For the record, I have an absolute clean record, not even a traffic ticket. I even held a Compartmentalized Top Secret Govt clearance.

10/10 paid state

10/13 pending isp approval ever since

Applied and Paid Online 9/8
Electronically Fingerprinted 9/10
Local Background Check 9/11
Paid Local fee 9/18
"Pending Local Approval" as of 10/18

I'm glad I looked here to see what others have been experiencing. My local police chief is the one that processed my paperwork and he told me it's been taking about 2-3 weeks lately. Well, today marks one month exactly, and the website says I'm still "Pending Local Approval." So the police chief is going to get a phone call from me tomorrow! Looks like he dropped the ball. I understand waiting at the state level, but I live in a very small suburb of Indy that was just voted 3rd safest city in the state. Therefore I KNOW they're not busy, and I shouldn't have to wait on them. Not too happy right now, but good to see many of you are not having to deal with this.

Good luck with that, my time frame was same as theirs. Today marks 1 month it's been sitting on ISP's end. Emailed them Monday to verify everything is good, response was "your application is processing".

This his process is bull****. Pay 130 dollar extortion fee to protect yourself legally and you will get your license "whenever they get around to it" how cone yours was not approved but last guys was? You submitted first ?

I wish i had an answer for you, but sadly i don't. But it seems as if he is located in Indy, i'm located in Anderson so location could play a factor oddly enough. I definitely agree that it is bullcrap and in my opinion it shouldn't take more than a week or two to have it approved by local and ISP then sent to you.

I dont don't know but I sure feel bad for the guys who had to wait 6+ months to get theirs

 

[Rflix]

9/18 ISP application
9/22 fingerprints / local app payment
9/30 local approval
10/7 ISP approval
10/12 received

Not too bad of a wait, could've been quicker but I supposedly filed as the local police chief went on vacation so that added an extra week.

This is a childish view in my opinion. It could be much worse. You could live in a state that doesnt even issue permits. You could be in a state like FL, where you have to sit in a class, take a firearms proficiency test, and then wait 3-6 weeks on top of that. Yes it sucks you're having to wait a little bit, but come on man, you've only waited 15 days.

(Abridged quote just in case you decide to edit that.) I believe he is referring to the "processing" response I was given when I inquired about my license. I must admit, I'm wondering why exactly they would not be done in a first in, first out order. Maybe I got the reviewer who watches cat videos on youtube through his whole shift.

That was what I was referring too. I have often wondered if it is a first in first out process too. I don't know but I also have a clean record. I seen some guys were approved in a week

Well then I must apologize for my rather rash judgment. I assume its because some background checks take longer then others. So sometimes first in first done doesnt always work.

Applied for a duplicate on 10/5 and still says duplicate in progress. How long do you think I should wait until I contact them to see what the hold up is?
