Nothing new with my wife's processing status after the long weekend.

Really like your username, by the way! "TK421? TK421, do you copy??"

Mine changed to "Mailed" on 12/28, hasn't come in yet

That stinks man. From what I see 2 days is the norm....has anything ever been lost in the mail for you?

Nope. When they sent me a letter asking for some stuff I missed it took 4 days according to the date on the letter. May have to call if it doesn't show by Wednesday, it will have been two weeks by then.

Just got off the phone, it was actually mailed on the 22nd and they said it should arrive within 14 business days but if for some reason it's lost they won't send a replacement until after 30 days.

When you get it it will be that much more worth it....Praying the shipping gods work a miracle and you get it in the mail tomorrow....Good luck.

Well, guessing it's been lost at this point. First time I haven't received something in the mail. Won't be able to request a replacement until next week.

Check your neighbor bro... cant hurt to ask right ?

Ugh... one full week in print pending as of today.
I was hoping to have plastic by Christmas, but it's not looking good. Called regulatory services and they said allow 14 days!

Mine has been Print Pending since Thursday 12/15

Called DRS again today and was told mine was mailed Monday 12/19... Never updated online though. Still says print pending, and as of right now, still no plastic. Hopefully in the mail tomorrow evening.

Finally, the wait is over!
Website still shows print pending (since 12/14) but today, 12/24 received my plastic!!!
Good luck to everyone, I know the wait sucks, but it will happen! Hope you all enjoy the holidays with family and friends! Merry Christmas!

Current status as of 12/10:
Citizenship: no documentation received, notice sent
Passport photo holder (out of state): under review
Background check: under review
LTC: print pending

I was born in Mexico but became a citizen over 10 years ago. Didn't even think to send in those documents with everything else when first applying so I sent in both my naturalization certificate and passport on Sunday 12/11. I haven't received the email saying those documents were received yet but when I sent in my LTC class forms I got that email almost immediately.

Also, I only scanned the front of the certificate and ID/photo pages of my passport. Is it really necessary to scan the backs of those as well?

I was reading through the Government Code for your answer(s).

Sec. 411.172. ELIGIBILITY. (a) A person is eligible for a license to carry a handgun if the person:
(1) is a legal resident of this state for the six-month period preceding the date of application under this subchapter or is otherwise eligible for a license under Section 411.173(a)

Sec. 411.174. APPLICATION. (a) An applicant for a license to carry a handgun must submit to the director's designee described by Section 411.176:
(4) proof of residency in this state;

(b) An applicant must provide on the application a statement of the applicant's:
(3) residence and business addresses for the preceding five years;

Based on that, I would say you have met the requirements. As far as taking a copy of the back of the passport. If it's the book type passport then I do not see why it would be necessary to send in a copy of the back of the photo page. If it's the card type, then I would have just to be on the safe side, but still I do not see that it would have been necessary.
