Well USPS shows that DPS recieved my corrected info this morning. I just talked to Steve and he said it takes up to three weeks to get it back into processing after they get the info back.

Since I'm sitting at the 60 day mark since they originally recieved my packet, I believe I will be talking to my state rep & senator about that....

if you got an incomplete message, your time stops. Technically when they get the corrected info and it changes to processing, it starts your 60-day clock again. In practice, they seem to just resume your old timeframe. I emailed DPS about mine last week and got this update. SO in my case, 3/6->3/25 + 4/6->present. The clocks start when it changes to "processing application" not when you get the return receipt, unfortunately. The "return receipt" -> "processing time" can by law be up to 30 days (which i think they are trying to correct by revising the legislation)

Sent them an email yesterday, got a reply today saying they are waiting on the printing of my license.

Couldn't agree with you more. This really has nothing to do with being patient as mush as it does with a "system" that does not do what its suppose to do. To think we actually pay someones salary to go into the system and enter "processing", "incomplete", or "issued". Why not shut that down and use that persons time in a more productive manner? Its suppose to be a feel good but quite frankly its insulting. In the real world companies fail for not being efficient....... well, at least until the latest administration.

They should take a look at the Domino's pizza website. If you order online you can watch the status change from prep to cooking to boxing to delivery. This would probably cut down on the phone calls asking about status. But that would be too easy though

very nice, we have near identical date information so I'm hoping to be not too far behind.
I've refrained from emailing/calling just to see how it all plays out vs others from February.

We all wish that was the norm, but for many 80+ days or more has been very common. Hopefully, your experience will be better than mine.

Received application on line January 19th
CHL class Jan 31st
Mailed Feb 2nd and verified from DPS Feb 6th
Pin received Feb 19th
Processing application March 2nd
Application complete license issued TODAY!!! April 14th.

So that would be 43 days from processing not bad I suppose!!
Total time though was 71 days since I mailed it......

Welcome to all of the new folks here on the forum!!

Thanks Keith!!!
