Does anyone know when I might see an update? This waiting game is torture

Submitted: 8/2
Acceptance: 8/9
NICS: nothing yet

I have the same exact dates as you. I'm guessing early September we will see a NICS with a late September or early October approval.

 

[eruby]

Yeah, I did go back and skimmed previous posts, but didn't see it. (Not all 4,400) I did go back to my application, no NICS number, but there is a date (today's) on the NICS number line at the top.

Are you saying the number in bolded red below is today's date?

If so, maybe a change is coming for you. 8/22 is when I submitted.

NICS Number: Date

I am just confused by the DATE on my NICS line. I have a date there, my wife doesn't.

You are in NICS, your wife is not.

Yay Maryland!

My theory is that date updates whenever something moves forward behind the curtain. Its like the "last modified date" field.

The most obvious change is NICS, but there may be other things the raccoons are changing (like results from one of the 17 databases MD checks)

That is your accepted date looks like. When you get a NICS number there will be a number between where it says NICS number and date

That makes sense, but the wife was accepted 8/22 and she has no date there. As camo556 said, it is probably just the date of last change (my app was accepted today).

When you log on and click go to dash board, what is the accepted date there?

You submitted 8/21 (per your screenshot) but that date doesn't show on the dashboard, only the accepted date.

I think you are in NICS

Just a casual observation:

Seems to me that the "Date Submitted" matters less than the "Application Number" when it comes to an application being accepted. Seen lots of evidence of people with low application numbers who submitted weeks after starting being "accepted" before people who submitted earlier but with a much higher application number.

My guess is the process has been going something like this:
-Troopers go through the applications in ascending application number and check if all info/materials are present
- If application checks out, applications are then marked as "Accepted" and then moved into a different queue.

Once in "accepted" status, the progress seems to be more linear.

Wife and I submitted 8/21. She was accepted 8/22. I was accepted this AM. But I have a date on the NICS line. Hers is blank.

If the date on your dashboard under accepted is 8/26, and since the date on your 'print application', next to NICS is 8/26, I believe you got accepted, and went to NICS on the same day (today).

I have an accepted dated, but my NICS is blank

This could be possible. A coworker and I took the same class and both submitted as soon as it was done on 7/17 mine was accepted on the 21st but his not until the 28th. I started my app probably a week or 2 before he did so I would have a much lower number.

I dont think so. I have a low app number, 16xxx. Started app 6/25, submitted 7/10 and was accepted 7/21. Some people that were also accepted on 7/21 have been approved already, I doubt they have a lower app #. Idk why it took them so long to accept my app. I should of had my permit 2 weeks ago. They need to be going by submission date not accepted.

This stuff amazes me. I submitted the same day. Took me ten days to get accepted, and I still don't even have a NICS assignment yet. Un-flippin-believable

 

[trailman]

+1 on Congratulations.

This is the most maddening thing.

There is NO rhyme or reason for these timeframes. Submitted to accepted, accepted to NICS, it's all a crock of shit.

Yay Maryland!!

Yes have to love this crap
