I just read the blog on the PPI website and there was a guy who called around 12:45 and they were still trying to get them out today.
2:20pm, yes, we are still trying to get them out today. That includes hand stuffing approximately 12,000 business size envelopes with the result letters.
Just out of curiosity - Do we get the certificate in the same envelope ??
Unfortunately, no, another governmental process. Certificates are printed, stuffed and mailed by yet a third agency, that is contracted through our parent agency, Department of Consumer Affairs. That third agency, gets our data then rolls that into their mass production with the other 100's of thousands of other certificates, licenses, etc issued by hundreds of other CA state agencies that issue licenses/registrations etc. So....could be three - four weeks for an actual wall certificate.
The good news? Once a license number is issued and posted to our "license lookup" you can practice using that number. Check here:

and...when it states "updated Monday - Friday", they mean Monday night at midnight.
If the mail goes out today, I would guess Tuesday midnight, since we do not update our own records.
Best of luck.
