I was fully expecting to wait another month or two since I did not submit prints. If it helps, my permit # 5826. I'll update when I actually have the license in hand. But as far as why I'm approved before other who submitted prints, I have no idea Edit: Maybe it was faster for me since my prints are already in many different systems, so it wouldn't take long to find them/ approve them Prints don't work like that. Otherwise, none of us would have submitted them. Either way, it was apparently a big waste of money for those of us who did submit them.
