They asked for more documents...

...so I sent them...then nothing. There is no shortage of posts describing people's schedules and lengthy delays, but I have yet to see one that detailed the situation when you are "asked for more documents". So, here's my story:

I was arrested in 2007 on a felony charge. The charge was eventually ...

Re: DPS is currently inputting mid Feb.


I would agree - NOT a first come first serve basis, but more accurately, not ANY kind of basis. NONE. There is no explanation, no pattern, no logic, no nothing. We send in our information to some black hole of "overwhelmed" government employees who take however long they want and there isn't ...

Re: send deposition?

And for the record, in case that wasn't just a typo and you aren't clear on the difference, know that they will be requesting a DISPOSITION, not a DEPOSITION - two totally different things. If it was a typo, disregard.

Re: send deposition?

I don't think you would have done yourself any harm by sending it in initially. If they are going to ask for disposition information now that they are aware of your arrest and you didn't include the paperwork, you have just moved yourself from the "ridiculously slow" bracket of applicants (Those ...

Re: Gun Bill Saturday - May 4th

1. I know someone already asked this, but can you elaborate on the progress/status of any open carry bills?
2. Someone mentioned "listening in" to the debate. Is there a way to do this? Is it just on the radio or televised? If the radio, what frequency and time?

Thanks for all the info and keep up ...

Re: DPS is currently inputting mid Feb.

Today is 7 weeks and still have yet to be entered in the system. I called yesterday and gave them the tracking number and they told me that my app and packet was received. I just think its bull that people who mailed their docs off 2 weeks after me are already in BG check while DPS has yet to even ...

Re: 6 weeks mailed and still "awaiting receipt..."

I sent my completed application and sent in my materials to DPS on 2/5/13. Fingerprints were taken in Kingwood, TX on 2/3.

6 weeks later and the DPS site shows the same ol "awaiting required materials". WTH is going on? I've read a lot of "status update" posts and no one appears to have been ...

After just shy of 3 months my wife's status was changed to "Manfacturing Pending" yesterday.

Re: 6 weeks mailed and still "awaiting receipt..."

Completed online app for renewal on 3/25. Emailed docs at same time. Updated to Manufacturing Pending on 4/25.


Well, again... no rhyme or reason there. Pretty sure they still run background checks on renewals just like new applications. Maybe renewals go through a different "department". Ha ...

Re: 6 weeks mailed and still "awaiting receipt..."

So considering that you still aren't showing up in the system when you try to login, have you tried to do the online application? I ask because you keep saying "I did the mail in app instead of the online app" and I (and everyone I talk to) did/does both - you just do the online app BEFORE you mail ...

Re: 6 weeks mailed and still "awaiting receipt..."

Did you pay your fees already?

The reason I ask is because when I went through the CHL class the instructor told us specifically "You have to complete your application packet online FIRST, make your payment, and then you can schedule your fingerprints".

I came right home from CHL class, went ...

Re: 6 weeks mailed and still "awaiting receipt..."

I called yesterday and spoke to a very nice and helpful lady. I wanted to inquire as to whether or not my fax had been received even though I was expecting her to tell me "There's no way for us to know that" and leave me in limbo for an indefinite amount of time. Suprisingly, she told me the ...

Re: Finally

I put my packet in the mail on February 5th. My status changed to "Pending Manufacturing" yesterday morning. I have a clean record...you can blame 2 things for the processing time. First, the amount of applications being processed is way up and the FBI check is taking a long time due to the ...
