have you had your state rep check into it to find out exactly what is happening? if the case has been sent back it could be expired and gone, if for some kind of further checks i know some take long time. First you need to know exactly where it is and your rep can do this. Have you done any kind of check before now in the months earlier?

You are probably in the dreaded security checks. Call DOS at 202-663-1225 push 1 then 0 to get a real person. Give them the case number and they can tell you if it is "undergoing administrative processing". If it is there is nothing you can do. Contacting your representative or senator might help but it is unlikely. I have been in the same situation since April 2007 also. It must simply go until all the checks are completed.

Actually, this is one area where an attorney would be able to help. You'd basically need to file a lawsuit in federal court, asking it to order the Govt to make a decision in your case. The Court wouldn't do anything; but usually, the US Attys who defend the case will get the FBI to finish the "name check" and then your case can proceed. If you really are caught up in the record check problem, there really isn't any other solution at this point - though they just announced some grand plan to clear the background check delay by the end of the summer... ugh.

Good luck!
