Hello Alice! Usually it takes 10 - 14 business days.
The state says about 21 business days. It can sometimes take a little longer depending on how many applicants they have submitting paperwork as well as major holdiays will affect this timeframe. If it is longer than 4 weeks, there is a phone number for the licensing department you can call to inquire about the status of your application. You are considered legal according to the state 21 days after the state has recieved your application AND cashed your check. Make sure to keep copies of your paperwork.
