When you say 'application made', is that post ITA or pre ITA? (I'm assuming it is post ITA). Either way I'm curious to know the processing time too.

Hi there, this thread is in the Family Class Sponsorship section of the forum, if you are looking for EE timelines you may want to try the other section. :)

You have to fill out an application online and then forward the confirmation email to identity.fbi.gov with your name, address, courrieur
“Your Identity History Summary Request has been accepted
and will be processed in the date order in which it was
received.” And so on.. may I ask if this is the confirmation email? This was the only email i got from them. Thanks!

Yep, you will receive electronic copy of your FBI PCC. You can download the copy within 90 days. I just receive mine last week. Less than 48 hours after the fingerprint was delivered.
okay good to know! Well we are still waiting.. Its been a week since we processed it online.
But they haven't located our fingerprints that were sent a month ago.. I'll give them a few more days though. I'm not impatient yet as I need to wait for the Aussie police check haha.
We didn't think they would request as my Spouse technically didn't live or work in Australia or USA. He worked for a cruise line so we weren't expecting it. I feel its weird they are asking but we are providing, no problems.

I'm in the same boat...we sent all the info in last Wednesday or Thursday and no update. I guess we fell in the new processing time frame (3-5 business days) lol

okay then, basically same time frame as me. We applied Wednesday night and sent the email to them with the info. Then on Thursday received an email stating it would be forwarded and to keep checking my email.
But 3 to 5 days is a whole lot better then 3 months. Positive thinking in this game is key for our sanity haha

For Sure! I'm happy with 3-5 days. I'll let you know if we receive anything! I'm sure by Friday we should hear something.

I just received today! They sent me one email saying my fingerprints had been received and would be processed in the order it came.
Then 10 minutes later, I received another email with the FBI check.

But still waiting for the Aussie check to come on the mail before I submit anything

Anyone who did eDO asked for a hard copy as well? I am waiting for it to arrive in my mail for 2 weeks now. I downloaded my results but I want to see the hard copy as well...
