before you can get tags you need to do the title transfer first which takes about three weeks. then after you recieve the title you then apply for the tag. it took me about three weeks for some of my trucks. if you use a messenger service it will be quicker. should the idiots in harrisburg that review your application and pictures not like something they will send it back to you with the reasons stated. with a messenger service it is usually two to three days for that. in my experience the #1 reason for rejection is the the pictures supplied showing the truck is not as it was when it left the factory. ive had one rejected for that purpose and had to do some magic for the second round.

use a messenger service they know the ins and outs of how it works and can make the whole ordeal less painfull and well worth paying the fee.
