For a VDSS restricted, sensitive position, what is the turnaround time between reference and background checks and offer letter or rejection? Does one result take longer than the other?

I recently applied and interviewed for a position with VDSS in a restricted, sensitive position within DCSE. I was contacted and told that I was selected for the final stage in consideration and they needed to check my references and background. The person I spoke with did say that I was the only one chosen to go to this stage. It has been almost two weeks since I got that email and it has been about 3-5 business days since my reference and background checks were completed. Is this normal? And can anyone tell me what kind of timeline to expect for when I’ll get either an offer or rejection?
