Couldn't help but chuckle at these back to back posts...

Looks like big454 is having a problem with prints. I wouldn't be surprised if he gets a request to resubmit.
Curious whether big454 prints on file were submitted electronically or on the old paper card. My local cop shop scanned my prints electronically, then printed them on the card for submitting to DPS, before they started with the digital print process. So far, no problems for me.

I submitted mine digitally . They were good enough 4 years ago. I think I would have received something by snail mail if I needed something else. But you never know really. I don't expire until until August but still I like taking care of business early . They should have 45 days for renewal and I'm holding them to it.

I would think that with electronic prints you should be GTG on prints quality...

So much for my theory.

Thankfully you've got time....

Must be nice. I’m 53 days into a renewal and fingerprints and background still under review. No requests for additional documentation. So who knows?

I am gonna take a guess and say that they are probably prioritizing the ones that are about to expire . I am still almost 5 months from expiration . Really who knows but they're not really consistent on process time.

Well then I would have been a priority if that were the case. I submitted 5 days before expiration. I postponed it longer than I should have. But everyone I talked to was getting there's back within 3 weeks so I didn't worry about it too much. Lesson learned.

Ooo. Bummer.
Hopefully you have a backup? I have an AZ license just in case something like that happens.

No but I'm definitely thinking about doing that.

Just make sure they don't both expire in the same year.

That's what I have been seeing here. The quickness of those renewals. Don't really understand why a renewal would take long anyway. No new information to look at since original application should be simple enough. but

Been having a back and forth with DPS. They stated it may take up to 180 days to receive my renewal. They have all required documents, and information but are still stating that it may take that long. If it does I will be out of compliance, and will not be able to legally carry.

All my docs were receive 02/18/2019, and I have since gotten my state rep involved.

So am I. I have received nothing from the state regarding any new info needed.
