My guess would be they didn't bother to call it in until the next morning, and just lumped the background check in with the 72hr wait time. Not sure if the people/system they call is a 24hr line or not.

On a side note, as a fellow navigator of IL gun law, what was the turn around time on your CFP if you needed one? Just got my FOID, now on to the CFP class!
