Permit Wait Time

I live in Tinton Falls and applied for my initial FID card back in March.  Its now July and I haven't gotten my permit yet.  I didnt want to keep calling them but broke down and called twice last month.  They told me the State Police didn't have my fingerprint form and asked me to email it.  I did.  She then said I was good and didn't have to do anything else.  My references, criminal background check, mental health check all came back within a week via email.  This is very annoying.  A coworker who lives in Edison applied a month after me and went to buy her gun a week ago but I am still waiting.  Anyone here familiar with Tinton Falls and their typical wait time?  Is it because I'm going for my first one?  Somethings got to give.
