Congrats! Sucks that you had to endure that long wait.
Some people see it as a shooting range. I see it as a Second Amendment theme park.

My status posted mailed today. Given the average timeline I've been watching, I'm expecting to see something in the mail Monday or Tuesday. Today is day 43 from packet submitted, 42 from fingerprints. :clapping:

Does it say something like "waiting on receipt of documents" or something to that effect? That's what mine says and I did get the confirmation email and that's what my status at dps says and it's what everyone else is reporting that theirs says.

They will tell you it will take 6 - 8 weeks before your online status will change. They will not be able to tell you if your mailed documents were received.
