Is anyone else seeing this page?

I just checked and everything looked normal.

Got my plastic yesterday, mailed paperwork 11/19. I had to run to CVS to get a couple of things yesterday so I thought I would see how it felt. I have a XD40 sc carried in an OWB holster at 4:00. Didn't feel to odd although I was pulling my shirt frequently. Then I went to checkout. Wallet in back ...

Status just updated to mailed this morning. It looks like (at least for now) once DPS acknowledges receipt of your paperwork you're looking at a little under a month-long wait. 11/10 Online App 11/14 Fingerprints 11/17 Class 11/18 Mailed Paperwork 12/15 Paperwork Received by Data Entry 12/15 Backgro...

Wife's is in Manufacturing and I'm still stuck in Under Review :???: I checked this morning and my background check status was just updated.

Just checked. No update for me yet. Hoping it happens today, so I don't get stuck in limbo until after Christmas. (mailed 11/17)

Good Luck to you all

Congratulations! I'm definitely hoping my background check/manufacture/mailing process will be as expedited as yours was.

Nope, if I get a status update on the background check before Friday I'd be pretty surprised. The guy that had his done within that super short time period definitely seems to be an exception to the rule.

Mine just updated this morning too...... at the risk of sounding totally self-centered...... here's hoping i actually get my licence before an executive response (to the awful shooting in Connecticut) comes through the pipe.....whatever that may be. 11/10 Online App 11/14 Fingerprints 11/17 Class 11...

And got this update today

Thanks for the heads up. That makes me hope my status updates in the next day or so, since I mailed right before you.

It seems like those who upload their paperwork are getting much faster status update for received than those who mailed. I definitely agree with that! If I don't show received in another week or so, i may re-submit online. I assume that when you mail your paperwork, and it arrives at their processi...

I thought I'd start a thread to keep track of the post-election wait times for packet processing, since I'm sure there are many of us in the same boat. From what I can tell, if you got your packet in before the election, your processing time from packet mailed to licence received is about a month, g...
