How long to receive my official FAA part 107 license after passing test?

[billem16]

I passed my part 107 exam in early March. I did the necessary steps afterwards - IACRA online application, enter my exam ID, etc... It gave me a temporary license that I was able to print... but when will my "official license" come in the mail? It has been a while, so curious how long it took other people to get theirs? Thanks

It took about a month for me to get the plastic in the mail. That was during the temporary shutdown period back in 2018~2019.

That's what I remember, but with this virus situation, no way to know. You use your paperwork in the meanwhile to prove your qualification. Congrats!

Early 2017 and it took me almost seven weeks to get mine.

As of today, 4/16/20200, the FAA is processing applications that were submitted on March 4th, 2020 so it can’t be that long till it’s being processed

You can check the FAA’s website for this information.

Airmen Certification

Once the airman certificate has been issued you will see the status in IACRA update with your certificate # and then it takes maybe another week to get the hard copy mailed to you.

I just got mine 2 weeks ago - about 7 weeks from submission.

PSI is closing their testing centers. See this article.
