Hello all, Just a bit of an update. After giving up watching the DPS site for updates and having to send in the same paperwork multiple times, I walked out to my mailbox just now and found my CHL waiting for me. 97 days from mailbox to mailbox and it only took sending in my CHL-100 three times, my C...

Just received a letter from the DPS stating that I need to submit a certified search record from BOTH the County Clerk and the District Clerk instead of just the Travis County Clerk like I had thought for disposition information from an arrest 17 years ago that I was never charged for. Looks like I'...

39 Days in Background Review. 80 days total today. No replies to inquiries via email and eternal hold times. Yay!

Today makes it 69 days for me. Fingerprints incomplete on the website. No letter or email asking to re-do them. I dunno.

So I just received a letter dated 05/02/2013 from the DPS that says they never received my CHL-100. However, on 05/03/2013, the website says that they did receive it. I'm kinda confused now. Just in case, I think I'll both certified mail and email the PDF copies I made. I also hope copies will be go...

oh hun, you didn't have to do that. We digitally transmit your prints to NCIC which returns to DPS. On that paper, your TCN is your proof that you were fingerprinted - it does nothing for you other than gives you a receipt that your prints were done (and if you have to do a retake, that TCN will be...

Just a curious question for our March applicants, did anyone of you submit your documents online/email? If so, did you get a email confirmation, besides the "Thanking for contact..." Thanks all! :patriot: I scanned and submitted on-line the form the FAST folks gave me the day I was finger...

So it looks like, for the most part, those who submitted all of their information up to the second full week in March are starting to see some activity. My fingerprints were the last bit I needed to send in and I did that on 03/22. I'm trying not to get my hopes up for seeing some kind of change nex...

The DPS received my packet on 3/19. I'm pretty much trying to not think about it anymore until I get my plastic. It's hard, but I only allow myself to check the status on Monday evenings now.

You should have paid the expungement fee. :shock: Yeah, looking back on it, I should've, but just couldn't afford it at the time. As I understand it though, expunged or not, I'd still have to list the arrest and disposition so I'd be back to where I am now. I guess it would be best to ask my instru...

Hello all, Back in 1995, I was arrested for, what Austin PD said, unauthorized use of a motor vehicle. The vehicle was my brother's and he didn't report it stolen. I was strip searched, given an orange jumpsuit, fingerprinted, mug shot taken and got to spend a night in the Travis County jail. The ne...
