EDIT: I called that DPS number and got a manager within the RSD who is looking into it. She said that was very strange and that I should have received it Saturday or Monday unless the email was a mistake. Oh joy.

Same here, got that email with same date buy no plastic and no website change, following your post closely.

Alright, just got a call back. My license was approved and SENT TO PRINT on 3/24. It is now officially on its way to me. She said I should see the website change within 48 hours, but because the campus is so big there in Austin, it takes a while once it's been printed to get out of the building and to the post office, thus the 7-10 business days. She kinda hinted it'd be less, but I should see it and the status change soon. Should be one MAYBE two days for it to show up in my mailbox.

Best of luck to you! Hopefully we'll be freeing up some spots in the Waiting Room soon!

Please allow 7-10 days for delivery. I've noticed, judging from recent posts on here, that it generally has taking less then less then a week from this point. My {mental} target day is now 4/6/16, which would be 82 days from "all in to plastic".



Timeline
12/4/15: Application
12/7/15: Fingerprints (received by DPS 12/8/15)
1/14/16: CHL-100
1/15/16: Uploaded CHL & DD-214 to RDS (all in date)
1/21/16: Received confirmation of receipt
3/23/16: Received response from DPS (as the result of a call to my state rep): Just wait a bit longer, should get to it next week
3/30/16: Received follow up call from DPS: Approved and sent to print (Day 75)

Website Change: ?????
Plastic Received: ?????

Looks like the end of the tunnel is finally in sight for me. As an aside, it looks like if you've called for a status update (either through state rep, DPS Director or Governor), it may not hurry your app along, but it looks like they will call you when you get approved if you request it. That worked for me and a few other in the last few days or so.

Nice, I'll post here once my websites changes or I get plastic.
