Geez, that was quick.

My wife is very jealous. She mailed on 11/13, received by DPS on 11/15. Sitting in background check since 12/5. I assume since she has had three places of employment in three different cities in the DFW area in last five years (requiring more background check time if they do indeed check each city where you have worked and lived), and has a class B misd. from 2007 (sealed, so not considered a conviction for CHL), its taking longer.

Congrats for getting your license. My wife and I applied the same day in November. She received hers in December. On the TxDPS website, mine still indicated "waiting for background info" (1/14/13). Go figure.

My update was 29 days from the date I mailed everything in. I would expect yours to be updated by the 23rd since Monday is a holiday.
