Just a quick update on this for the people that are following. I decided to go ahead and submit my paperwork electronically, which I did on 10/28.

Today I logged in to check the status and saw that I now have the options to change address, etc., so I assume I'm approved and going to print.

So in brief summary, my timeline has been:

CHL class taken on 10/3
Paperwork snail mailed on 10/5
Fingerprinted on 10/23
Paperwork submitted electronically on 10/28
Email confirmation of paperwork received on 10/28 (about 6 hours after I sent it)
Status changed online on 11/5 (option to change address, report lost license, etc)
Plastic received on 11/9

Thanks everyone!

Just a quick update, I called the DPS on this and they said since I already mailed the CHL-100 in, to NOT send it electronically. They said since it was only mailed on 10/5 it could take 6 to 8 weeks to process. We'll see what happens in the next month I guess!

Thanks for your replies folks.

Ok...long time CHL holder here but first time Texas applicant. My Utah license is expiring 12/1 so I'm getting a bit anxious. I took the CHL class on 10/3, applied online on 10/4 and mailed my paperwork to DPS on 10/5. I was fingerprinted last week.

I called this morning to check on the status at DPS and they said my application is in the system but they haven't received my paperwork yet.

My CHL instructor is the one who recommended that I just mail my forms as he said electronic submissions have been known to take longer. I'm honestly kicking myself now for NOT doing it electronically.

My question is...is it too late at this point to send my information electronically?

To add further, when I log in to check the status, there is nothing showing up. Just the link to apply for instructor course.

Thanks in advance for your replies!
