Well from what I've seen is pretty fast. I did the online on 7/28/09 and I had the hard copy faxed to me last monday. I filled it out and faxed it back. Tuesday I got the call from Jim to go take the drug test. He told me to call him on friday, I did and said I will know tomorrow (monday) when he is flying me out.
