124 DAYS TODAY AND STILL NOTHING, According to DPS they are waiting on Harris County Back Ground Checks, ( I have a 1200 LBS sea turtle that is faster) No wonder the system is so bogged down. My patience is starting to wear thin. :mad5 :rules: :grumble

Still waiting on mine, hoping it will be any day now. 117 days since receipt, 76 days since they stated it was processing online as of today. Never had to resubmit prints, photos, or anything. I'm 21, only lived in Harris county apart from one year of college in Indiana. I don't know why an easy background check would take so long - my record is 100% clean!
TX CHL since August 2009.

:txflag: I didn't realize how fortunate I was to receive plastic in only 91 days. Although I've carried numerous times since, I finally took my "Wally Walk" this past Sunday. That was enjoyable. :thewave
