Re: April 2014 Applications

Today I did my first walk with my CHL. I walked around Academy for 40 mins, then crossed the street and did some shopping at the mall for about 2 hours. I must say that I wasn't that concerned about people noticing me, nor did I have a chihuahua type appearance. My wife asked are you carrying right now, I said does it look like it? She said nope.

Re: April 2014 Applications

I'll say this much, if you didn't have your Drivers License number memorised before you stated the CHL process, you will by the time you get your plastic in hand...

I'd call now and find out what the 'special condition ' is to get a jump on sending them whatever they want. My guess is it's the DD-214 they are looking for.
Shortly after I posted this, I made the call to them and it appears that all of my paperwork was not forwarded, as stated in one of the emails they sent me on day one, so she went ahead and found it and sent it to the proper person for them to add to my packet. The document was my proof of current employment.

Re: April 2014 Applications

This is what I don't understand, me and three other co-workers attended the same CHL class and uploaded our paperwork to DPS within minutes apart from one another. This was 45 days ago and as of today everyone of them has had an update and I am still looking at the same screen, as I did on day one. Anybody know how this can be?
