So tired of waiting.

So tired.

I put a countdown widget on my phone, and I think I may have slowed time down for myself and everybody. I'm sorry. I'm deleting it as we speak. And I advise everyone not to do that. It just reminds you over and over many times a day how slow this process is.

Let the waiting game begin!

Hopefully the wait times will decrease, they just had a major rush in December and that' seems to be what's been causing the longer waits.

Practice carrying around your house, entering and exiting your vehicle and stay safe!

with Twist, from just watching post here it seems they're getting caught up is right. Like I said in a previous post they (RSD) got hammered in December, everybody was spending their hard earned cash $$ & a lot of apps came in. As you see they're a bunch who sent of apps in beginning of January are receiving theirs now. So hang in there, clean history record you'll be good to go 35-45 days & not so clean history record, 60-90 days. I'm hoping my plastic will be here Tomorrow!
App- Dec 4th
CHL-100 & sent -Dec 11th
Fingerprint's - Dec 17th
Was told & got approved - Feb 25th
Website Status Changed- Feb 27th
Plastic in hand - TBD

I've read a few different ways people have submitted all their paperwork, and it seems like no specific way seems to help. Some people snail mailed theirs, with all of their copies, only to still have to wait the entire 60+ days. Everything I've done, has been electronically sent. When you register with DPS (online), fingerprints are done electronically, and finally my CHL100 was scanned and converted to .pdf and emailed (electronically). I haven't physically mailed anything. Every one of those packets of information is just a few clicks away for them. And again, it will probably still take a full 60+ days. I can only imagine how chaotic it is though in that dept. The lady that did my fingerprints said she has done 80+ for LTC just that one day I was there. Now imagine, all over Texas....rolling in by the thousands (probably a day).
Oh well, I'm happy in not a very impatient man, and I'm thankful that my state allows me to do this.
I'll keep everyone updated as I move down this road. And I'm sure, I'll eventually be whining like everyone else by the end of it...lol

I was emailed a receipt with a 13 digit code after the initial application was completed online. I assume this code (405CHxxxxxxxx) is my pin?

And you can't login to the site to check the your status?
Are you getting an error? What's it say when you try?

Didn't you apply online with DPS? That's the only way to apply for a LTC that I'm aware of. There's no reason why you can't go back there and see your status.
