Application progress banter thread

[RCSB]

Have a friend that didn't listen to me and submitted the HQL first and now wants to submit the HGP at the same time. He's DD214 exempt. Anyone know if they both can be submitted at the same time?

Yes he can, but he needs two sets of fingers prints one for HQL and one for HGP.

Well I submitted on 08/08 and it was accepted on 08/12 and still no NICS yet. I wonder where they are in the stack?

You are awhile from NICS. I submitted 7/27, accepted 8/4 with no NICS.

My bet is that msp licensing division is closed until Tuesday morning for the holiday weekend… maybe they’ll prove me wrong? Just another 28er here

I have no idea weather or not they're off but they've certainly earned a break.

As long as they have a tech in there printing the permits it’s ok. Oh, and they have someone standing by to deliver my permit today. That’s about all they need to do. Lol

Seriously doubt it. They've taken this task they have to deal with seriously and have done a good job. However, based on volume they are still far behind. They can't afford to lose 3 days and to do so would be inconsistent with how they've handled things so far.

Like I said I’d love to be proved wrong, 7/27ers on deck and the great 7/28 is in the hole.

I think this approval process is slowing down much faster then the chart that is being keep indicates. There are quite a few folks posting acceptance dates of 8/2 ,8/3 and later with no movement. The chart indicates 19 days average from accept to nics.
Congrats to all that have been approved and thanks to the gentleman keeping the chart .

 

[410pewpew]

The whole process from submitted to in your mailbox is like 2 months

You're very welcome.

We're seeing that NICS checks don't have much of a bearing on approval date. The approval rate that I've started tracking in the last week plus is 2-3x higher than it was a month ago when the first of us were getting permits.

Additionally, we can see the two numbers at the top of the chart flattening a bit. Both the submitted-approved and accepted-approved intervals have grown at slower rates in the past week than they did in the week prior.

We have seen apps submitted on a given day take as many as six (?) days for MSP to process to approval, once they start on that day's apps. Now they're taking 2-3 days, and we know that application rates were crazy high in the window we're in right now. We 28ers will tell you all about it, as most of us submitted 7/17-7/18. We saw people who submitted after us get accepted before us. MSP didn't have their shit together.

Now, people are getting accepted the same day they submit. NICS can be done literally the day you get your permit. Since it's only good for 30 days, I would guess they're running it later in the process to avoid running it twice.

Anyway, I don't think they're slowing down. Hurry up and wait. Good luck.

I submitted 07/22, was accepted 8/2 and got my NICS 9/2. I expect I am 2 weeks or so away from approval. I expect 8/4 NICS is coming by early next week, 8/8 maybe by the end of the week.

Finally some movement.
Submitted 8/1
