Right there with ya brother.... Looking up though. Although there are still some holdover's from early December, I just read of a confirmation from 12/30..... so, it looks like some early batches of 2016 will start being processed in the next couple days, so just a few more weeks before they start coming out. Hopefully, we'll be in those early batches (rather then later).

The wait is making me crazy too. Got my EDC, settled on a good comfortable holster, a stiff, solid belt and been wearing around the house, practicing at the range.... all the stuff I'm s'posed to be doing. I'll be ready when the time comes. I actually uploaded my docs on 1/14, but didn't initially receive an email, so I called on 1/21 and the nice lady told me I was all set and my docs were "in the" system. I got a confirmation email within an hour. I'm hoping that my upload date was my "clock starter" but in reality, I've settled on 1/21 when the email came in.

Good luck to you man! I've been carrying around the house as well and I get more and more comfortable with it every day. I ordered an alien gear and it's comfortable and seems to be pretty durable (although I've had very limited use with it). I also sent my docs in about a week and a half or two weeks before I got my confirmation. I physically mailed them off on 1/11, then after being informed that they hadn't come in, I uploaded digitally on 1/21 and got conformation on 1/22. Here's to both of us seeing plastic sooner rather than later.

Took the course on 12/26/15, submitted application same day, did the fingerprints on the 29th of December and just got mine in the mail today!!! So excited!

Way to go brother! Glad to hear you've got plastic in hand! The sad part is that I took the course on the same day as you, but because I dragged my feet, I'm still a full month behind you.

Enjoy that walk!

Gonna have to wait another month, I had given up since last week they told me I was gonna have to start the process o er because they most likely lost my paperwork. So took the wife and kids to galveston this weekend with the money I had been saving for my carry gun, then get it in the mail today lol

Congratulations Joshua!

Stay safe..

I waited about 6 months for mine over 5 years ago. That wait was terrible. I just conducted a class last week and am interested to see how long they wait.

I am lucky. I filed my documents on June 26, 2015 and had my plastic 20-days later!

I'm sitting at 63 days now. No plastic. No status change online.

SW, have you tried calling them recently? I'm sure you will get yours before me,

I'm at 56 days now and people submitting after me have gotten plastic but apparently I'm "calling way too early"....

Thanks Darrell...

I've called a total of 22 times in the last 5 business days. Some "rapid fire" some with a wait in between. All I've gotten is the recording. I'm just wanting to find out if all my necessary paperwork is there. Have sent 7 e-mails. Reply........ ""Thanks for your e-mail".
My timeline:
12/30/15- on line app. and confirmation received. (the one with the big bar code)
1/8/16- finger prints with confirmation from morpho they were sent
1/30/16- chl class
2/5/16- chl 100 sent by secure e-mail. confirmation sent to instructor 2/8/16

I guess I'm just sittin' round the fire with yall drinkin some hot joe.

I've called 3x in the last 3 weeks. When I called today she said "Oh I see you've called in a few times. You're in background check, please be patient."

I thanked her for her help and asked if there was any sort of update/timeline info she could provide and she pretty much said "No, just be patient."

at least you don't have a arrest in your past, non disqualifying 1993, that's why you're gonna get yours I bet really soon then.
