It an take as long as it takes.  The law doesn't provide for a time frame.  You have to expect to wait a minimum of 6 months before you need to start checking on it.

The law does provide a time, six months max.  One of my buddies from school took about five months.  Are you in Rochester or the subs?  From what I've heard is Rochester does extra background checks.

 Processing of license  applications.  Applications  for  licenses
  shall be accepted for processing by the licensing officer at the time of
  presentment.  Except  upon  written notice to the applicant specifically
  stating the reasons for any delay, in each case  the  licensing  officer
  shall  act  upon  any application for a license pursuant to this section
  within six months of the date of presentment of such an  application  to
  the  appropriate  authority.  Such  delay may only be for good cause and
  with respect to the  applicant.  In  acting  upon  an  application,  the
  licensing   officer  shall  either  deny  the  application  for  reasons
  specifically and concisely stated in writing or  grant  the  application
  and issue the license applied for.


NYS penal law 400.00 states that they are supposed to act within 6 months but if delayed, you are supposed to be notified of the delay.  I recently spoke with a former co-worker who recently got his concealed carry permit and it took about 7 1/2 months to get.  Depends on the backlog.

I got my pistol permit in Orange County.  Took over a year.  AS you know the law stated it shall be approved or denied with in 6 months.  I finally had to get a lawyer to contact the judge and force him to act on my application.  I live in Orleans County now, right next to Monroe County.  A very gun friendly county that only issues unrestricted permits and acts on an application in a timely manner.

I would contact your character references and see if any of them got sent a questionnaire or got a phone call from the local pd and did not respond.  If any did not respond that can delay your application.
