Default Newbie Hard Cider - Wait or Not?

I've got a Hard Cider going. My first try. I've never tried to make
anything carbonated before.

I used Red Star Champagne yeast.

I'm waiting for it to clear in the carboy before I add brewer's sugar
& bottle to carbonate it. It's taking a long time to clear. I added
Isinglass 2 weeks ago... it's better but still very hazy.

Do I keep waiting? I'd rather wait until it really clears, but is it
possible to wait so long that the yeast will not "take" and do the
carbonization thing after adding sugar at bottling?
