Background is past the estimated finish date by a few days. Anyone else have this issue? If you did have the same issue is it usually a few days late or a few weeks? thanks

Has it been over 15 business days? I know they say up to 15 days but I think I got mine back the next day, it’s because I’ve been living at the same address for at least 25 years. I heard traffic tickets can fail BGC.
Call them. They are very helpful

It’s been 10 days but the estimate was for it to be completed by 2/2. I haven’t had any tickets or law issues in the last 20+ years. I undergo background checks for my 4 previous jobs. As an aircraft mechanic for an airline and most recent working for the government. I know I won’t fail just need to get this background check over with. Seems like a slow process compared to other background checks I’ve been through.

Some of the BGCs are taking longer because the state-sites, (DMV, Courts, etc) are short-staffed and not responding as quickly. If various state authorities are unable to comply then it creates a delay.
All the more reason to start any renewal process early; and if a new application, patience is the word of the day.
Best of luck

I called them and they said they are waiting on one county. Everything else is good to go. Ugh. That one county has been a thorn in my side since I was born there and since I left. Lol

I would call. Be the squeaky wheel….this is your income!!!
Mine took 2 months…I submitted at the beginning of November and it wasn’t finalized until about 1 week into January. San Diego County kept asking for 2 week extensions. If you call NNA they can let you know what is taking so long, but there is nothing they can do about the court system taking there sweet time unfortunately.
I cant do any signings till I receive clearance. San Diego County is delaying but just hang there we on the same boat.
I feel your pain, 2020 year the wait was crazy long, last year was pretty fast. Wish you well on this.
I started my renewal on January 3, 2022 and received my completed background check through the NNA in my hands on January 14. I wonder what is taking so long for youse guyses.

My background check took 4 months last year 1/15 -4/30/2021
Awesome. I got mine back the next day! Think it’s because I’m in the same house in the same state over two decades.
Wow, you are right! It took longer to get background check for notary job! I was required to get a Colorado background check and the Federal background check with fingerprinting and all this week for MLO license. I was surprised to learn that Colorado background check came back with a success status within two hours! And the federal background check came back six hours later with success status! They got nothing on me!
Ahhh, they just didn’t look hard enough (just kidding 
)
