Nice to meet everyone.
Just mailed my packet Thursday 11/15/12, however I sent it express mail
and my tracking number says it arrived 11/16/12... but I'm sure that won't speed up the process lol.
I really enjoy the forum here and looking forward to being part of the community.

Welcome to the forum. Get comfy. You will probably be here about 6 weeks. Congrats on becoming a responsibly armed citizen.

Trying not to check the status daily lol.
Sent packet on 11/15 and as of 11/28 it still doesn't show they've received it on the website.

They're on the governments dime so it takes awhile. Its almost impossible not to check daily though. You'll probably see an update real soon though.

I mailed mine on the 19th regular mail, I'm watching your updates with interest. Keep us (me) posted.

It will update. My guess is it got slowed down due to the holidays but I dont work for DPS and dont want to.
DPS is slow but once the updates start to roll in it goes by rather fast. Typically unless they hit a snag on your background check the initial receipt of materials takes the longest to show on the site.
Good luck and hopefully you will get your update soon!

Thanks CoffeeNut! I'm trying not to check it everyday, but that's almost impossible.
Today is day 20 and still no update.

RE,
I ordered a Crossbreed Super Tucks Deluxe holster this morning. 4-6 week delivery, I'm curious to what gets delivered first, my CHL or my Holster.
Monday will be day number
22 since I mailed my packet with "no change in status".
