Police communications technician background investigation

I have taken the exam for police communications technician, attended an interview, medical and psychological interview. The background investigation is pending. It has been about 3 months and have not received any call yet from the background investigator for an interview. I had completed and finalized the background questionnaire online. How long does it normally take hear back from the investigator for an interview after it's been finalized and submitted online? And who can I contact to check the status since they do not want applicants contacting the investigators?
