My app was received Aug 5th

CC charge October 7th and showed initial review complete.

October 18th my first referance was interviewed. My second did not receive a call.

Waiting to see whats next. I had to answer yes to some background stuff.... no criminal record but an assault charge from 2005 as a youth.

Still seems like its moving quicker than i anticipated.... fingers crossed
