What did you say in your inquiry?

Basically that I was not looking to get my license quicker than 60 days, but given the status of other people I know who applied at the same time, something should be showing on the website. What I am trying to avoid is getting to 60 days, and then someone realize there was an issue that I could have taken care of now. They are always helpful when I called, but I don't think the people you speak to are the ones processing the paperwork and I would imagine that 95% of their calls are from people asking for a status update.

My original application date was 2/26...with everything submitted by 2/28. So given that, it took 20 days for any sort of status to appear on their site. It might still take 60 days, but I feel better that it appears to be moving along and i can now visually see the "check marks" that they have everything they need.
