How long for license issuence

gcja · Apr 1, 2006

My license was issued on March 22. I do not physically have license in hand. That can take 10 business days. I was fingerprinted on March 15, so 7 days later they verbally gave me my nj license # over the phone. However, I went into NJ to get fingerprinted by their scanning. If you do traditional fingerprints in your own state, it can take 2-3 monts.

thank you for your reply gcja,

i also did the live scan fingerprint in newark(the office of the attorney general building itself) i had heard somewhere that background check takes up to 4 months and was just waiting to hear from the board. i called the board a couple of days ago and got answer why they did not send my license. i do not have a us social security number, they were waiting for the documents that state why i do not possess ssn. i sent that one yesterday..hope to get the physical license very soon.
