It depends. What you're talking about here is where does your case fall on the standard bell curve. Only we don't know what everybody's background check times are. If you are lucky, you'll be right in the middle of the curve. If not- Some cases are on the 6 sigma end of the statistical chart. As in, one in a million. Seems to me one guy's background check never did finish.... However, most checks seem to process fairly quickly. Check the timelines and you can extrapolate a reasonable "average" of times from stage to stage. I think Yuehan is right on. P3 to P4 is typically 1 month and you are still within this time frame. At this point, making a lot of calls to GUZ is stirring up details of the process that are best not known. I'd wait a couple of weeks, then check with them again. You'll probably see the P4 very soon. Hello Yuehan and Steve, Yes, best thing I can do is wait. Hehe. My password is still not working so this is my account from home. Let see how long it takes from now hehe. Steve, where is the wedding stop located at in Guangzhou maybe I have time to go there. Joe
