If your references are being checked, then they want to hire you and are verifying things...they won't extend an offer until everything clears, but even then, you will still have to undergo a drug screening/test and probably fingerprinting (to verify with the Department of Justice that you have no convictions, etc.)

You asked this question twice.
It is common for any employer to check references of potential employees.
These checks can happen up to six months after the interview. Depends on the quality of the applicants and how many were screened.
Good Luck and do not worry.

It sounds like the process has gone very well for you so far, and even though you won't know until you're offered the job, the fact that they're checking your references is a good sign. I'm sure they'll call you within a few days to let you know. Good luck!
