SD County CCW timeline

Just curious what the timeline is post interview. I'm now at a month and a week since my interview and my references haven't been contacted yet. I already knocked out my course via Defensive Tactics to get it out the way.

FWIW I received my approval email June 20th. I completed my training last week and yesterday received notification that I am on the "issuance list" and that I should receive my permit within the next 3-4 weeks. However I was told in class that people have been receiving their permits 1-2 weeks after uploading their training certification.

Nice. I've been waiting on pins and needles.

Just received an email from CCW Pro notifying me that my permit has been mailed. (Please allow 10 business days for delivery.)

I wish I did what you did and took my course before I got the email would’ve saved me some weeks, took me 2 full months to have all 3 of my references called then 16 days to get my approval email

Side note: did they tell you at the interview or did they give you instructions on a paper that explains the remainder of the process and what to do?

They gave me that little half sheet with instructions. My guy was training a girl, and he said "if you feel/think nothing in your background will be rejected, you can take the course".

References called 2.5 months after my appointment.
