I noticed that most people post when DPS received their package in peoples CHL timeline. How does one find out if and when DPS has received it? I mailed mine on Monday 5/18, but have no idea how to verify that DPS has received it. :confused5

A lot of folks send their packet certified mail so they receive a delivery confirmation.

without a delivery confirmation, it takes like 6 weeks to be entered in their system.. until then you really won't have a way to find out without delivery confirmation.

Did you pay by check? I did. I found out they had received it when the check cleared my bank, about a week after I mailed the package. It still took a month before I got the pin.

Yes you did....... And it is my contention that with all this extra money being received they could afford a "temp" to get these darn BG checks completed. I have seen very little movement on Harris county applicants, this is beyond ridiculous. I am beginning to think I will never receive my CHL. :banghead:
