From what I have read on the forums....it normally takes between 1 month and 3 months to get an FBI clearance letter. Mine for instance, which I did earlier this year - before applying under CEC, took about 3 months. The FBI standard says between 16 and 18 weeks, but I've seen people on here that have said 6 to 8 weeks. It really varies...

FBI, Criminal Justice Information Services Division
Attention: SCU, Mod D-2
1000 Custer Hollow Road
Clarksburg, West Virginia 26306
U.S.A.

I did not put "Attention: SCU, Mod D-2" on my request, which is why it probably went through regular channels. Maybe if you put that on, as per CIC instructions, it will go a bit faster....as its forwarded directly on to the appropriate department. Just thinking out loud here.

I have applied for three this year. I have received them all between 5 - 6 weeks. So it's been pretty consistent.

Also, I have never put "Attention: SCU, Mod D-2" on it, so I don't know if that'll help. As I said, for me, it's always been 5-6 weeks in total.
