How long after clearing codes to wait for smog test?

I took my 2000 Ford Mustang 3.7L in to read codes, then cleared (bad EGR) Then I went to have my Car smogged and they told me it passed, but that it had been to soon since clearing the codes (Smog test computer came back with "System's Not Ready" and told me I have to bring it back within a month (basically saying they won't let me pass until the "System's not ready' code clears - How long does that take, or how can I expedite this?

Thanks for any help I can get.

We don't have smog tests in Mississippi but we do have some cars that smog the mosquitos.

I would drive it for at least two tanks of gas and see if the check engine light comes on. If not you are good to go!
