Re: October Application

Chin up Bridge, Hopefully yours is next up for completion. The fact that The status changed to completed on a Sunday shows that TDPS is in fact working overtime to get the applications done. I checked the status yesterday (on Saturday) and it still showed processing application. The funny thing is I...

Question about Employment

I was wondering if anyone knew anything about this. Over the last 6 years, I have worked at the same company, that is until Jan 15 2009 when out of the blue, I was laid off from my job due to the economic recession. I am still waiting for my background check in Harris county to be completed. When I ...

I called the CHL division and spoke with a guy who told me the hold up is due to Harris County and it is because of Hurricane Ike (Oh Really?!). I was nice and didn't get ugly as I know it would do no good. I thanked him for his time ...

Re: October Application

They informed me there is a sizable back log and that they have requested expedited treatment of mine. However, they make this same expedited request over 20 times a day to Harris and Galveston Counties. I took that to mean nothing is going to happen any time soon. Yep, When every one has to be Exp...

Re: October Application

I called TDPS shortly after my last post to see if I could get a more detailed status on my application and talked to a woman and all she said was 'we are processing your application - waiting on the Background check'. Well, Yeah isn't that what it's all about; a background check? It's now Day 74 an...
