Does anyone know how long has it take some one to receive his results from FBI recently? What could I consider as the max to recieve: 4 months or 5 months?

Hello, just wondering will FBI inform you that PCC has been mailed out? or you have to ask? thanks!
Have anyone ever witnessed FBI processing time longer than 5 months?
Is there any database people would put their processing times?
Is there any database people would put their processing times?
A lot of people track their cases here https://myimmitracker.com/en/us/trackers/fbi-summary-check-tracker
Ours was received Sept 28th and our card was charged yesterday (Jan 09th)
Thank you for your inquiry,
We are unable to locate your request at this time.
The current processing time for an FBI Background Check is taking 14-16 weeks to complete from the date the request was received. It can take 14+ weeks for a request to clear our security process, so we are not able to see the request in our system until then.
At this time we are opening mail we received on approximately September 19, 2017. We are unable to verify the delivery of a package until it is opened. If you submitted your request by courier (Fed Ex, UPS, or USPS), please view their web site to verify delivery.
Hi,
Our package reached FBI on 29-SEP-17. Today they are opening the mails received on 29-Sep, but they are unable to locate our package.
We sent our package via USPS and we received the acknowledgement stating the package was delivered successfully.
Does anyone had similar experience?
Could you please share?

I'm concerned... We are submitting application next week and haven't sent his the FBI stuff in yet..
i don't think it's unusual, someone would have experienced the same, i hope they will share their experience here.
Sorry to hear about your situation. Whilst I haven't experienced ourselves this situation but I can think of couple of things that you could do.
1) Call the customer service personnel at the FBI and explained your situation and have their Fax number share with you so you could provide your evidence of the mail.
2) If they have lost it then it's lost. No point in revisiting that fact. But what you could do is ask them if they can issue you a certificate if you immediately send them a new finger-prints with an over night delivery?
3) Help them understand that this process takes nearly 14-16 weeks and Canada Immigration has a 90 day limit before they close your file so if they can expedite your request it would be wonderful.
4) Simultaneously, please inform Canada Immigration about this incident asap and if you have any correspondence from the FBI, in writing, please share with the immigration to see if they can grant you some grace period considering your situation.
I can only pray that your matter is resolved at the earliest.
Good Luck.
Hi, may I ask, when you say we "We are submitting application next week", you mean send application after you received an ITA or the initial Express Entry?
1) If it's after you received your ITA then you are a little late since FBI takes a little over 14-16 weeks to process finger prints and provide PCC. Unless you are already an US GC holder? In that case you can receive your finger prints within 2 weeks.
2) Whatever the situation maybe, please initiate the PCC at the earliest so that way you could t least inform the Canada Immigration that the process has been initiated from your side. Canada Immigration is aware about the current processing time for the US PCC and you may get some grace period.
Good Luck and I hope I have been able to answer your question.
Thanks for such a wonderful guidelines. I really really appreciate it.
