Hello! just for a more recent update on the turnaround time. I submitted my application Tuesday, Mar 7. and waited the full 45 days until Friday, April 21.
I called NSP troop-A that day and there was no answer. I left a message asking them to call me back and by the following Monday afternoon, April 24, I had yet to receive a call. I called again and they tell me it had been issued that day (day 48) HOW CONVENIENT!, and to wait for it in the mail.
I just received it in the mail today, Wednesday, April 26.
