Called DPS today to follow up with conversation I had Wednesday and was told then that she would add my name to list to ask about since everything has been in for a month. First, as soon as she took my application #, she told me that I was going to be mad at her, as the system crashed and I would need to call back later. :waiting: Called back an hour later. Was told that mine is at the printers. I asked for an ETA, and was told that she could not give one, as they send them to the printer in batches of hundreds and have to do a QC check when they come back to verify the license is correct. Status online still says "processing application".

Day 105

OK....I'm trying to be REALLY patient!!!! :grumble Just got off the phone with technician and was told that they are still waiting on background check from Harris county. My application has been in since April 6th. I have read that some have sent a letter of complaint to the state senator and recieved some satisfaction in expediting the application. Is this correct? Someone please give me some guidance.

Thanks!
