Congratulations! Actually that's not bad considering you had some extra requirements.

Ya know, after forgetting about it & not checking the site every day, 4X/day for the past week, it was a wonderful surprise. I spoke to a RSD rep last week so I wasn't expecting anything till at least the end of the month.

Disqualifying conviction in 1997 was expunged in 2002. However, CA county never forwarded docs to DOJ. Last year I was denied picking up my handgun (purchased legally in 2012 at TX Gun Shop) from a local pawn. I had to Appeal to reinstate my right to own & possess a MY already LEGALLY purchased firearm. I received my VAF number and new printout of my criminal background from DOJ, NICS. The disqualifier was no longer on record.

Note: there are numerous Databases the federal and state agencies use for background checks. My husband was a security contractor with secret clearance says every federal department uses their use systems. And none of the agencies share info.

Initial APP on line 1/10/16
LTC Class 1/12/16
Fingerprinted 1/13/16
All forms Submitted online 1/13/16
Conf email 1/21/16

Not sure why the email took so long to get. I called after 7 days because I expected the email in 2 days like I had heard. They confirmed they had everything. I hope its no Indication of the wait. So now I wait!!

4/2 Well still nothing. One call a few weeks ago I was told I was through background and just waiting for someone to match up my paper work which he confirmed they have had since 1/13.

I have the same confirmation date and the same story from RSD... Through background and just waiting for "data input and printing..."

I'm right on the same dates as you guys. I did get a call on 3/30 from an RSD sup that told me that mine was being finalized up and gonna be sent to print later that day.... However, here I sit. NO CHANGE, NO PLASTIC.

Hopefully we'll all get them this coming week. That be nice, but I'll believe it when I see it.

I also have the same dates. I gave up calling because I wasn't getting any useful infoinfo, just the 12 week message.

I have a clean record and worked at the same job for 10 years now so it is frustrating watching Feb applicants get plastic.

I couldn't help myself so I called again. Finally some positive news. I have been approved and sent to printing on 4/1.
All in: 1/13
Confirmation: 1/21
Sent to printing: 4/1
Website change:??
Plastic:??

I have the same confirmation date and no website change...

So I am just assuming they mailed mine at the same time as yours... I'm just assuming it.

Its how I get through the day...

Ya know, I'm a week ahead of y'all and I've never heard an update like "it's in background". Ive been told "in processing" means it was in someone's pile waiting to be TOUCHED!

FIVE FRIGGIN WEEKS AHEAD OF ME!

Wow! I've seen a few folks in these forums that are getting their LTC that were all in weeks before me.

BTW Gnameree, my apologies. I mis-interpreted previous posts that you were on your way to getting your LTC.

I know it's frustrating, but we will have plastic in hand.

I'm still happy for those who've navigated the state
System and received a CHL. JUST IRRITATED with govt employees. And that's another on if my rights: 1A!!

72 days here fingerprints conf 1/15/2016

We were both were in the same day. I just got approved today, so I expect that you'll be approved within the next day or two (if you haven't already). Good luck and stay true..... It finally our turn.

78 days now! So I guess waiting the weekend will put me at 81 days WAITING!

I figured that if you call and complain you paperwork will go to back of the line. We had a guy build a house near our small airport, he started complaining about noise . Guess whose house gets buzzed a lot.

There had not been any rhyme or reason lately. Some got them quick and some longer, some called and emailed and some didn't. Some got answers to emails some didn't. It looks like it depends who's stack it got put in and how fast they worked. The next hurtle is how long it takes usps to get them from Austin to wherever you are. That could be an extra day or two.

I just hope mine gets here soon. This waiting is killing me. I got my end finished quickly and turned in, I would like the same from them.

That's exactly what I was told.

Good luck and be safe!!

Congrats! Finally!

sig202255 wrote:I called today and got through after the 10th time and waited 40 minutes, a fella answered, I stated that I was in my 12th week and was wondering where I was at in the process, I heard him chuckle when I stated the 12 weeks, but anyway he ask for my license number and stated that I was one of the lucky ones that my LTC had been approved and I would get it in the mail in the next 7 to 10 days.

I am reluctant to get excited but hey we will see. There has been no status change on the website, so the pessimist in me says if it doesn't get here in that time frame I won't be disappointed.

I have noticed on this forum that when they say you should get it in 7 to 10 days it is usually sooner so here's hoping that it true.
