My best advice is to sit tight and be patient. I know it's not what you want to hear, but the likely cause of the delay is at the DOJ level right now. Thanks to the moratorium that was put on in person court appearances during COVID, Deputy AG's are swamped and focusing all of their attention on resolving the cases, both old ones that were put on hold and new ones that are flowing in daily. Unfortunately, that means that they are less diligent about some of their ancillary assignments like reviewing CCDW applications. I haven't practiced in Dover for about a year so I don't know what their staffing situation is, but if it's like the DOJ in New Castle County, they have a ton of open DAG vacancies so staff shortage can further contribute to the delay in processing the application.
