hmm, if the law states that they only have 45 days, then the office is wrong in telling the OP that they have 60 days. I would still contend that license renewal should be automated and should take less than 30 days, except for rare special cases.oljames3 wrote:Government Code 411.185 LICENSE RENEWAL PROCEDUREallisji wrote:Why does the renewal process get 60 days?
They shouldn't have to do a full background check, and they already have the fingerprints.
In the year 2018 this process should be easily automated. Electronic application is received. Electronic background check commences (only needs to include the period of time since the previous license was issued), if no disqualifiers were identified then it should automatically go to printing.
It shouldn't even require a DPS agent to look at it unless something iffy shows up on the background.
(e) The department shall renew the license of a license holder who meets all the eligibility requirements to continue to hold a license and submits all the renewal materials described by Subsection (a). Not later than the 45th day after receipt of the renewal materials, the department shall issue the renewed license or notify the license holder in writing that the department denied the license holder’s renewal application.
