For most of us yes, however there have been a few who have reported that the status never changed and they got their plastic.

Tazman wrote:From looking at the October, November and December "waiting" treads, it looks like the average wait time until your status changes on the website is from 18 to 19 days from the time everything is submitted. Well today is 19 days from the day that I got everything submitted and I checked the DPS website this morning and I have the option to change address, report lost/stolen etc. Woohooo! :woohoo

Now I just have to wait on the plastic to arrive which will probably be next week! :hurry:

Congrats! that pattern doesnt seem to hold for all of us. :-(
it's a bummer the website doesnt do a better job of telling you where your app is at in the process.

6 days from 'received' to status change, 8 days to get it in hand.... impressive job DPS! :txflag:

The processing times are so random its amazing. I've had Government jobs my whole adult life, and my background checks usually come back pretty quickly, but looks like this time around i'll be waiting.. hope i'm not one of those 60 day folks.. :-)

jr. wrote:@jeremy. It never changed. Every time i checked the website and entered my DL# & DOB it just went to the same screen saying please allow sufficent time ect....The more that i think about it i realize that they never sent an email showing they received my chl-100 and barcode. The only email i received was immediately after i submitted my onli.ne application

thanks thats good to know. ive been checking and my understanding was on the right hand side where it says logout there would be other options to change your address etc.

Guess i wont put to much faith in that website now :-)
