Waiting time for Cali hov stickers

I sent my form the first week of January and have yet to see any movement (the cheque hasn't been cashed). Has anyone who submitted around that time received their stickers? I keep worrying that the form was lost on the mail or something. Is there a number I can call to ask for info?

Being on this futuristic car makes this process feel like it is from the Stone age. :(

    They are slow. Took over a month for me.

    @SolidWhite60DX - Yep - at least a month. Waiting on my second set as well. Remember they have to type in all the data from the forms onto punch cards so the 1970s era computer can process it.

    Ha ha! good responses. It was tough waiting to get the plates, then waiting to get the stickers. Ouch! Easily 4-6 weeks for the stickers. Sorry, Solidwhite60DX. Once you get them, you will be sailing away in the HOV lane!

    They cashed the cheque early this week. Maybe they process them only once a month? Hopefully I'll get them this week. Interestingly, I sent the request for the PGE rebate only and got a cheque in the mail a couple of days after. Perhaps they should privatize the DMV?

    OTOH the hov lanes on the 880 or 680 don't move that well anyway.

    Solid: FYI Do you have the new Fastrak FLEX transpnder to go along with your HOV stickers? You'll need a FLEX to use the Express Lane on 580 even with the White stickers... and I think they're retrofitting this requirement onto 680 as well. (I know the 680 sensors recognize the FLEX set to 3 and correctly NOT charge you, where as they do charge a normal Fastrak transponder car even with White stickers.)
