    Took me 4-5 weeks to get mine after submitting prints. I did mine around the holidays though, so I would think it should be a bit quicker now.

    Depends on the State you live in also.. Homeland Security does the background check and they take about 7 days to inform your state then it is up to them to notify you ..

    Im in Illinois. I dont want to wait 6 weeks to drive. I might just try to do a van job right away then. I want to do tankers and maybe do oil fields.
