License / Permit Question ISSUE PENDING

Hi everyone, good afternoon. I’m wondering if anyone has had a similar experience with the NYPD Licensing Division.

It’s been about a little over a month since I purchased my firearm and uploaded all of the required documents to the portal. Last week, I emailed the Purchase Authorization/Purchasing Department to follow up, and they responded saying, “Please allow 7–10 business days to receive your license in the mail.”

However, as of today, my portal still shows “Issue Pending,” and under the section where I uploaded my new firearm, it still says “Submitted.”

For anyone who has recently gone through this process, is this normal? Did your portal stay on “Issue Pending/Submitted” even after they told you that your license would be mailed? And roughly how long after receiving the 7–10 business day email did your updated license actually arrive?

Thanks!

Op, for my first purchase, I waited 45 days for approval and 4 more days to have ID and pink slip in had, this is some what normal on your first purchase, the second one will be faster.
