They confirmed they did. A month later when there was no change in my status and the site said "waiting on documentation" I called in again. The rep I spoke to was very courteous and reassured me that they did have everything and no further action was required from me. Since my original doesn't expire until Feb of next year I decided just to let it be and quit bothering them. :) Well guess what was mailed to me on 12/24/13. Yep. Got my new plastic in hand now. Much faster than my original wait (about 6 months). Best $72.00 I've spent this year!


Why haven't I got an update yet? :(
Lady L, the renewals seem to be processing a little faster than the new applications. I am confident you will see an update this week based on the time line you submitted your packet.

Called this morning and spoke to Angela who stated that there was no way to check and see if they received my documents. I informed her that there are people that submitted after I did and they already have an update. She said " Must be an anomaly" and that it "Must be their lucky day" Wow, that was a great explanation. Thanks for the great customer service Angela... :totap:
There are so many variables involved. But they are working on the 2nd and 3rd week of October applications at this point. When you do finally get an update on the web site, things happen pretty quickly after that. I will venture to say that you will receive that first update very shortly.

Re: October Applications

My CHL arrived in the mail yesterday. :woohoo :clapping:

Mailed everything on October 9th, so it was 69 days total.

I don't plan on doing the Wally Walk, but I'm sure I will be shopping there soon enough. I do need to make a trip to Advanced Auto to return a battery core. That will be my Wally Walk.

I'll be hanging around here for a while giving encouragement to those who are still waiting. I really appreciate having this forum to provide moral support.

Thanks all.

Man a ten year wait is a long time :mrgreen: I'm sure you meant 2013. I sent mine on the 15th & haven't had an update either, so your not alone.
You should be getting an update this week. I think they are currently working on applications from the 2nd week in October. I sent my stuff on the 9th of October and it went to "mailed" last Friday. It didn't come in yesterday's mail tho.

I'm betting that you will. It goes pretty fast after that. Except for the postman.






I thought I was bad about checking the DPS website before everyone started getting their updates... It's multiple times a day now. I've had enough of practicing with holsters in my pants at home, LET ME OUT!!! :patriot:
It doesn't do any good to check more than once per day. The updates seem to happen over night. So, whatever it shows in the morning, will not change during the day.

At least this gives me time to change my mind again and again about a EDC. :totap:

Checked today.... Background check pending.
As of today... card manufacturing pending :hurry:
Congrats Coog!
