It will stay that way until AFTER you have attended the Instructor course at DPS.AF-Odin wrote:Took my NRA Pistol Instructor Course in June and sent application to DPS In early July. My status has NOT changed since late July where it shows all complete except background investigation and still shows that as under review.
As for the "when am I gonna get to go" question, no one knows. I put my app/NRA credentials in during the last part of June, and am still waiting. An email to the lady that is in charge of the office, around the first of November, has gone unanswered.
Best guess is that we'll have to wait until at least after all the current crop of instructors renewals are finished and credentials issued (seems to take about a month from anectodal reports) and then the finish up on other things that require action by the CHL office at DPS, like the curriculum for the programs for teachers that CHL instructors may qualify to teach (DPS has yet to say anything about that program, or who will qualify for the training) and stuff like that.
Hopefully, us would-be instructors will get a chance to attend the DPS Instructor School sometime in the near future.
