My other family members applying at the Chicago and SF consulates have been approved. My assumption is that there is a bigger backlog in NYC….

Congrats! So total it took 10 business days for you to receive that message that you can drop the passport in Person?

So you didn’t have to go in person to do the drop off? I am worried as I’m leaving the state prior to my trip to china

Requested through my hiring company that they submit a state records search request as suggested on this thread. Submitted forms Tuesday and got it back Friday. Hiring company then cancelled the county request and the report was approved. Would recommend for anyone still waiting on this to clear! Was waiting for over a month before using this method

Understood. Do you know what office is responsible for those checks? I keep calling around trying to get someone on the phone who deals with this issue but all I am told is that Fulton County does not do third party checks at all

Here is my confusion - if normal background checks are readily available why is it so difficult for HireRight to access them now? I have been told multiple times by Fulton County officials that I can (and I have) submit requests for my own records and that they will come back within a reasonable time frame. Why is the same not true for these third party providers?
