    Form 3/4s have been running about a year, so my guess is, "It's not the end. It's not the beginning of the end, but it is the end of the beginning..."

    I'm in almost the exact same place in line as you. Everything I have read on nfatracker and other places is that it's going to take at least another month to get through the pre 41f submittals. The shear number of packages after that is dramatically lower but there is a longer process that includes the background check for trusts. I'm being a little pessimistic but I think we will be lucky to see our hardware before Thanksgiving.
