BLS is currently experiencing a backlog in business
licensing applications, due to staffing turnover in our production areas.
Paper
applications usually processed within five (5) days may now take up to 12 days, while
online applications are being processed within five (5) business days.
We have been working overtime and have hired additional
staff to reduce the backlog.
Because unnecessary delays are more likely to occur with
paper forms that may have missing information or payment, please continue to
encourage customers to apply online at business.wa.gov/BLS.
We know how important it is for BLS to process these
applications in a timely manner in order for businesses and our partners to get
what they need. We apologize for this inconvenience, but please know that we
are taking immediate steps to improve this situation.
