But I'm getting worried...
I paid for and did my application online on Jan 15th
Did my CHL class on Feb 9th
mailed on Feb 11th
and still havent gotten any confirmation from the state that they recieved it.
I check the texas.gov everyday for the last 2 weeks
My buddy which did his application on Jan 20th and both of us took the same CHL class on the same day "Feb 9th" and mailed them on the same day has confirmation that the state recieved and is doing the background check.
I called the customer relations line today and after being on hold for a half and hour, The gentlemen said it's probally not enter in the database yet, and that it usally show up 2-4 weeks after someone mails it.
And that if I dont see it on the texas.gov website in a couple more weeks that I need to resend a whole new packet. This is getting real frustating :banghead:
Just to be clear - did you send it certified mail, return receipt requested, and have you gotten that return receipt to show that it actually was received in Austin? If they received it, then I would wait until the end of next week before I start getting too worried. If you can't prove that they actually received it in Austin, that's a whole 'nother can of worms.

Re: How long did it take to get CHL, mailing packet to plast

Just got mine one week ago - 46 days mailbox to mailbox. My status NEVER changed (other than fingerprints) until it went to manufacturing. I was very worried. I kept calling, and they would say that my paperwork hadn't been entered into the system. But they were wrong. Had to get a supervisor to get it straightened out. My husband, who submitted everything at the exact same time as me, was 47 days mailbox to mailbox. His status changed regularly along the way, and he did have 1 paperwork issue. So I would say 45 days is the average processing time, mailbox to mailbox.
