I bet you get some movement ASAP! I have not heard of it taking that long for anyone else?

No criminal records. Just moved around a lot in the past five years, all in and around Houston area. I still move from apartment to apartment every year or so.

Edit: well, take my example an outlier to the theory. Today is 4/11, and it is still under review.. days after I contacted them online.

Got a reply today. The response is interesting in that, he informed me that the application is indeed still in process. However, it will take up to 8 business weeks for the application to process through. I guess it is not 60 days. More like 60 business days or 12 weeks. So it can take up to 3 months to go through.

Well, patience is a virtue. As long as the current gun control media doesn't curtail the LTC licensing, I am fine with the wait.

Here is the word for word response from DPS RSD

Our records indicate your application is still processing. No additional documentation is needed at this time. This can take up to eight (8) business weeks to complete once your application is submitted and starts from the date on which all documents are received.

My background check has been under review since Feb 23rd. So I am cool with testing out the theory, but what do I say? I don't want to seem rude, and I do know they have 60 days to process the application.

Update: I just submitted a polite status request online and see where that takes me.
