Here's the reply I recieved from ISP today (4-27-09) concerning the status of my LTCH application.
"We are currently receiving a heavier than normal volume of applications. It is currently taking approximately 8 weeks from the time we receive an application for us to process it. The department has hired temporary employees to assist with the backlog; however it will take some time. If you had a valid permit when you applied, remain a proper person under statute, and carry your current permit with the copy of the application, then you can continue to carry."
