Hi, I had my AOS interview this Saturday, both my wife and I were in the office for no more than a min and the officer said our application was fine and he just needed the updated medical we had with us. He went over the basic details asked how me met and gave a verbal approval. He said a last background check would be done to make sure I'm not wanted by interpol for smuggling teddy bears and the process would be complete.

Does anyone actually know how long this background check normally takes before the USCIS system updates?

It depends if your name is the same as a Teddy bear smuggler. They would have to do some extra checking to make sure you are not him. Otherwise it's a check of a database and quick....if he gets on and does it and doesn't put you in a "to do" box that is piling up. no way to know how long really.
