Hello, I'm a permanent residence (born in Canada) in Sacramento CA. Currently I'm in my senior year in high school and I'm doing my senior project on learning how to fly.

Since I'm not a US citizen, I was informed by flight school that I have to have my background checked before I start flying. The thing is, it's already December, and I think I have to get my hours logged (10 hours for the project) before Feb. So I am just wondering how long the whole TSA background check for foreign flight student would take? Hopefully it won't take too long, money is not the problem but I just want to get it over with asap...

So yea, thanks a lot.

From experience doing flight Safety on a number of occasions the TSA process for us here in Australia normally takes no more than 4 weeks.

Where's 182NG when you need him? :-)

(flyer spotter - I'm hoping you realise that you've posted on an AUSTRALIAN (and kiwi) board and not a The Peoples Democratic Republic of the United States one)
