Billerica is pretty good. They do them in batches from what I could tell, two or three guys were picking up their LTC's at the same time I was there.

I heard it today from the person in charge of MSP fingerprints, they are running at an 8-10 week turnaround right now just so everyone knows, also keep in mind that is just for fingerprints and take into account the PD and FRB need time on top of that to process everything

I don't suppose this person indicated whether the delays are strictly related to volume/resources or if this is a concerted effort by the Patrick administration to slow down the rate of issuance of new LTCs? This was implied in a conversation with someone I know who is affiliated with MSP.

Since January they've seen double the volume of print cards come into their office, they process fingerprint cards for things other then LTCs also

How do you explain the post prior to yours that the poster received his LTC in 6 1/2 weeks??? I'm tired of hearing excuses!

Two letters of reference were required at the time I filled out my application. A week after I applied, my references were contacted by the Chief. About 3 weeks after that my LTC was in my mailbox.

Congrats! I'm from Millbury as well...got my Unrestricted LTC A 3 months ago....man i can definitely say we are VERY fortunate to live in such a green town that is so quick and easy to deal with!

Mine took a little bit longer, 7 weeks due to 1 juvenile arrest and subsequent dismissal on my record....but my wife got hers in 33 days...

Anyway, welcome to the club...get yourself a nice IWB holster and your good to go

We applied together 2/20 in our GREEN town of Mashpee and I received my LTC-ALP on 5/6, 75 days later. Joe's somehow got separated and was supposed to be in our LO's mail this past Monday 5/13 because it was listed on the enclosed memo but get this.....there was a 'HOLE' in the envelope from the FRB, it had to be repackaged by the Postmaster, and his is mysteriously missing. Supposedly one other is as well. We are waiting another week to see if it somehow shows up, otherwise our LO will need to declare it 'lost'. Has anyone had to do this and if so how long does it take to reissue??

Interview was 3/6, and it's still pending with the licensing officer. Just passed 10 weeks.

That's exactly my time lol, interview and prints 3/6 and still waiting. I can honestly say this is the worse wait I ever had to endure lol.

Medford -- Just called FRB. 9 weeks and still pending review with local PD. My attorney confirmed that he was also told MSP is typically running 8 - 10 weeks to process prints.

 

[Wicked1911]

Finally called FRB after 10 weeks and they said its waiting to be approved, printed, and mailed to my local PD. The lady on the phone went on to say at this point it's usually another 2-3 weeks of waiting....ugh.

 

[Boarder277]

they told me the same thing...it was exactly 1 week and 5 days till i had my LTC in hand

Something is rotten in Denmark! I hear of "confirmations" of an 8 to 10 week delay at the SP, yet people are going through the process, from prints to "in hand", in 4 to 6 weeks!?!? YOU figure it out.

Weeks to get an appointment that is more than six months wait in Dartmouth for the interview, just to then wait on the state. If you have a residence elsewhere or some other option, avoid Dartmouth.

 

[Beam]

New applicant for an unrestricted LTC-A.

Feb 8th- Application handed in, check cashed within a week.

Friday I called the FRB, and it's (finally!!!) been approved by the town, so it's at the state approval and printing. Once it's in my hot little hands, I'll make a final time count, but as of Friday, that's 98 days and counting.
