Online Application December 29
CHL/LTC Class Jan 3.
Fingerprints Jan 4.
Docs submitted by email and email confirmation on Jan. 4.
To date, no status change, no plastic. I do hear crickets though.
It seems those of us who submitted electronically on Jan. 4 got the weak link at RSD. Several friends of mine who took the class with me submitted later, and/or by mail, and already have their plastic. I do have a very clean record.
I have contacted my state representative to address the problem of the randomness. I don't like waiting, but that is not the biggest issue. It's a bit luck of the draw and that is a problem. It takes 15 minutes for me to clear a background check to buy a handgun, but we'll see how long for my "license to carry." My rep is in favor of removing the process altogether or at least just adding a notation to the driver's license.
I am glad for those who are getting their licenses though! Stay safe!
