I applied for my initial FID card on December 26, 2011. Handed everything over the the Detective in charge of ID's. I got fingerprinted on January 4th 2012 at Morphotrak.

 

Vineland PD told me 10 to 12 weeks is the wait time.

 

It has been 69 days so far. I did call them at the 30 day mark and asked about its status. They said they were backed up because of the holidays and it might take a little longer. What a bunch of crap.

 

I have 2 more weeks to wait, then I am going over there in person and gonna find out whats going on. Hopefully I get it before then.

Bunch o crap is right. You might want to check with your references just to make sure they did their part , thats if they received any letters.

My references received the letters a few days after I was fingerprinted so no problems there.

Definately go in person,

if that doesn't help, an email to the chief got my FID done in two hours

Did your references send back the letters?

Don't wait 2 more week, go down in person and see how it's going, ask if they got the reference letter back or if there was something else holding the process up. If things look like they will be done soon great, if not, start talking to the Chief, if no luck there, the Mayor.

Did your references send back the letters?

 

My references sent back the letters the day after they received them.

strange I did FID work there and it took LESS than a month.. they were really on the ball..

My brother applied a few years ago and he received his FID in 34 days.

I got my initial FID there few years ago, if I remember it took about 3- 3 1/2 weeks. I was impressed.

It must have been different a few years ago. I'm sure its sitting on someones desk in a pile......

theres now way it should take this long...i just got 2 handgun purchase permits at my local PD,that took only 3 weeks

I guess they weren't lying when they told me 10 to 12 weeks....
