Six weeks and Six days, still waiting patiently. Checked again, and they have everything now, and they're processing, so I have to wait to find out the outcome. I wish they'd send it already... but I was just thinking about it, I need a new wallet just to hold my ID's Licenses... :grumble

I may be dropping my LEO status soon, so it would be nice to have my CHL. I just can't do this crap anymore.

Dang I was getting excited reading about some of the fast turnarounds. Guess not everyone is getting them that fast. 60 days is gonna be brutal.

And here I am clawing at the walls with 36 days... :banghead: Still no change; called and confirmed they received all my paperwork. Should contact officials I voted for this mid-term elections; get them to cash the vote they got from me...

Good luck with that! Let me know how it turns out! I didn't get to vote, since I worked during every day of polling through polling hours... I am still very pleased how it turned out though, even though my support was not there.

I wouldn't contact your representative until after the 60 days has passed. From what I've read, there isn't really anything they can do before that point as DPS is still within the time frame specified by the Texas CHL laws...

My license got held up by DPS dropping my application into a black hole and it wasn't until I finally got someone on the phone who was willing to look into my application (on the third phone call) did it emerge from that black hole.

Woot Wooooot!
Change Information

Change residential address
Change mailing address
Change contact information
Report lost license
Report stolen license
This popped up! My plastic must be on the way! I get to go home Sunday, so hopefully it's there when I check the mail Monday morning! It won't do a whole lot for me, but need and don't have it, then I'd be crying. 7 Weeks and 3 days for status change. Looks like they're still gonna meet the 60 day mark, even with my snags!

Congrats. Sitting at day 40 right now, if they keep under the 60 day for me, it'll be an early Christmas present.

I bet you'll hear back soon partner, I'd suggest a little reminder call every now and then, and you'll have it before you die of impatience! Oh what a relief it is to see that status change finally.
