I just dropped mine in the mail on 3/27, it was approved 04/02 postmarked 04/03 and in my mailbox 04/04. Only 8 days, not sure it could have gone any faster. I figured it would have taken at least a week or more longer than it did.

11 days from mailbox to mailbox. Can't ask for much faster than that.

Renewal time was less than 2 weeks from faxing to receiving. Next year it will be time to renew again. Hope it will be just as fast.

NOTE THAT ORIGINAL POSTS WERE FROM 2018

I just sent in an initial app on 29 June 2020. It will be interesting to see if the CV 19 business has slowed down processing...or maybe it cut the applications and it will be quicker.
I will report back if anyone interested.

You should be in good shape. I got mine a few weeks back, and I had it took about a week and a half.

I recently submitted my CCW forms and got the permit in probably less than two weeks. Very good service.

Of course, they DID get my middle name wrong and I had to request it be corrected and re-issued. I sent an Email to them yesterday and today I got a response they would send a new permit out tomorrow in the mail. Should be just fine.

Compared to the Illinois process, AZDPS is fast and reasonable it seems to me. So far anyways....

Update:
I sent in application on 29 June. It was returned on 3 July because the Money Order did not have my address filled in. This is, of course, a bogus requirement as I use hundreds of MOs and never fill in the purchasers address. Never questioned.

However, the good news is that the application got immediate attention and was inspected and returned inside of 4 days. I sent it back on 3 July and will see when the actual CCW arrives.

Following.

My dumbass let it expire and was too lazy (maybe busy) to get fingerprinted or get a money order. Finally Did that on Wednesday and mailed out same day. It’s technically a new application, but DPS Folks said shouldn’t be more than 10 days since they had all my previous info. I’ll post when I get my card

Followed up with bank for money order, never cashed; DPS never received it. Lo and behold, After phone call to local post office, USPS returns to sender. In the DPS addressed envelope. Reason was, address doesn’t exist. Over 30 days usps had it and did nothing with it. Postage was more than sufficient. Went to UPS, cost an extra $10 and delivered.

My local ups store said this is one of several dozen they’ve seen just like this? Not a conspiracy guy, but same local post office not delivering to DPS???
