I didn't tell her that every person I took the class with received theirs 3-4 weeks ago and I was the first one to mail it in. Same county all my life and not even a ticket on my record. Doesn't sound "normal" to me. I'm definitely in the slow stack!
I'm glad DPS reads the forum because they'll be interested in the comment about the waiting period. DPS was at the Texas Firearm Instructors Conference on April 27th and they confirmed that applications were being processed in about 30 days, unless there is a problem like something missing. Yes, there can be exceptions, but a 72 day processing period absolutely is not the norm. I have students emailing me and advising that they have received a new CHL in as little as 3 weeks and I think the longest time I've had reported recently has been 50+ days.

You may want to send another email. The information you were given was wrong.

Chas.
