HCP waiting time

[orientalexpress]

I took the class on April 12th and submitted info/etc that monday and I called monday. So i called monday may 19th they said it was being issued that day and should be here in 7-10 days. So I'm guessing sometime next week.

Forgot to mention that a lady I used to work with took the class a week or 2 before I did and called the same day and got the same answer. I'm guessing they issue in batches?

Maybe I should call about mine Tuesday. I turned in my stuff March 14, and I'm still waiting... Man, I'd be annoyed if it got sent to the wrong address or something.

What I find interesting is that I've seen a few people in this thread said they've called and gotten the response that it was being issued that day. Like what happened to me and my friend. I'm wondering if there's a correlation or a coincidence.

April 22 Applied

May 28 Permit in hand

Not bad!!!

[Guest jth_3s]

March 19 Applied Still no Permit!!! They dont even have the thing from my sherrifs department yet and it will be mailed three weeks after they get that!

[Guest Tyson1]

i was fingerprinted on April 7th and recieved my card on May 28th.

[Guest jth_3s]

I was fingerprinted March 19th but my friend did it 2 days before me and got his back 3 weeks ago

[Guest GUTTERbOY]

Turned in my paperwork March 14. Called yesterday, they're still processing it. I was hoping to get the "We mailed it yesterday" response like everyone else, but nooo...

[Guest Boonie]

i called this morning and the lady told me that they was moving to a different office and she would have someone check into it and call me back but no one called back. i turned every thing in on april 4 and still nothing

[Guest mikedwood]

I applied 4/16 and nothing yet. So I wait. Should I call?

[Guest jth_3s]

You can call but Ive called twice and they have just filled me with BS. They told me they were still processing mine and it would be 3 weeks after they heard from my local sherrifs dept but I talked the guy who did my saftey class and he said the Head of the thing told him that I should be getting mine anyday. The problem they are having is they had to go back and do more thorough background checks on people renewing due to some people getting their permit renewed that were allowed.

I called Tuesday, 5/27 to check on the status of my (new) application. I sent my fingerprints in ~4/22, and just wanted to see where I was in the system. The nice lady who took my call told me that she "could go ahead and issue the permit today". I thought that was a little strange, like the app was just sitting there, waiting for attention, and if I hadn't called, it might still be sitting there.

It came in the mail yesterday, 5/31.

Glad you got someone friendly. When I called last week, I got someone who was about as jovial as a bee's ass. Told me rather abruptly that they had to wait on the background check, and I should call back the next week.

Oh well. So what happens if they don't issue the thing within the 90-day window? Can I sue them for a few million due to emotional distress, both for me and the mail lady?

[Guest Southron Boy]

Thanks. I was just up your way. It's chicken night at Uncle Bud's.

[Guest Phantom7]

i called about mine a few days ago,(about 45 days after i completed the fingerprinting) the chick on the phone said they were behind, that they were working overtime, and that it would probably the full three months before i got it. Working overtime.... what kinda bs is that? haha, anywho im still waiting

[Guest abailey362]

I'm on about 25 days now...maybe I will be lucky and get one of the short wait times....but I'm sure I won't....guess more harassing the mailman

[Guest happyg]

Well, they cashed my check for the renewal 3/15. My permit expired 6/01. My permit has expired:mad:. Lady I spoke with said they would send me a tempory permit. That has not even arrived yet. I spoke with her on the 24th. I'm kind of mad.

[Guest happyg]

Sarah Simpson at the Department of Saftey gets a big thumbs up! She faxed me temp! She was very nice and said that they were absolutely covered up.

[Guest betobeto]

Mine took all of 9 weeks to arrive. I started to think my GREAT GREAT grandma might of been a felon:tinfoil: Then I found out all you have to do is call and they can push the paper work through the system. You've got to love our tax dollars at work:screwy:

[Guest jth_3s]

Got my permit today! Filled out the paperwork and got fingerprinted March 19 and got the permit June 4th. The lady told me last week they didnt have the stuff from the local sherrif and it would me three more weeks at the earliest, Im glad she was wrong.

[Guest Boonie]

i got mine today i cant believe i finally got it. now that i got it what do i do with it:blink: took me 60 days to get it.

[Ricochet]

My husband turned in his paperwork and fingerprinted on March 20th, got his HCP today, it took 81 days.
