I turned mine in August 16th.... still waiting
I turned it in by hand, but I did my fingerprints at a local PD nearby. I guess doing it there would help. I called at the end of November, the lady was nice and suggested I call the 2nd week of December (mentioned she would be surprised if I didn't have it by then). Called again, told me it was still in BG process. Called just before the new year and another person suggested I check in again in mid to late January.

My wife sent her application in July and finally received it yesterday.
