I just called the FRB. They said that they are still wasting for my local department to send them my background check so they can print the license. I am getting a renewal not a new application. I had my appointment on Feb 7, 2014. This is ridiculous.
She must be hot!A friend of mine just got her unrestricted LTCA... 3 weeks start to finish.
5 1/2 months and counting. My wife had her appointment in Reading on May 15th. Finally got through to the Licensing Officer about 6 weeks ago for an update, after the State said it was sitting in Reading. They blamed the state then "found" it and said it just needed to be "printed". And that should take 2-3 weeks?!?! ...And that was 6 weeks ago and they refuse to return our calls now.
I know a guy still waiting for almost 3 months in Tewksbury and still waiting. No excuse for that.
my LTC came in 3 weeks6 months is the new norm in Massachusetts.
Completed my application 14 weeks ago in Westwood, still no license. I've called several times, each time they have said that my fingerprints haven't come back from the state.
MAtiger, you can call 617-660-4722 M-F 8-6pm to check the status of your application with the state.
It's absolutely ludicrous that some people are still experiencing such delays.
Some towns are willing and able to get this done, and some towns do not.
Wife got her (new) license, and I got my (renewal) both in four weeks back in April here in Grafton.
Is this a "training" thing where these towns need to be brought up-to-speed on how to process these applications in a more timely manner? Or are the towns (still) intentionally dragging their feet?
If the latter, what is their justification for inducing such delays on law-abiding people who are actually paying to go through the process?
