I believe ours took 13 weeks from all paperwork being in. They had lost our HS. We had to make an infopass appt to find this out bc they never answered emails or calls(i mean literally did not answer phone, it just rang) Hopefully yours will go smooter, but they are notoriosly slow and hard to deal with. Good luck, hope I did not scare you. We got approval in late July. Lisa

Our fingerprint appointment was with New Orleans on October 30th & received approval on NOVEMBER 30th!! However, my name was mispelled on the approval notice & I am having a HARD time getting that fixed!! I just emailed them so MAYBE I can get some help!

Let me know if I can help you with anything. Where do you live?
