I took the class in August and sent in the application. DPS received the application August 28. Check was cashed a week later. Yesterday the website stated that my application had been completed and license issued. 2 things that might have helped speed things along: I mailed the packet in with delivery confirmation. A signature was not required because with a P.O. box it could have been a couple of days before they retrieved it. But they knew that I knew exactly when they received it. Second, it was a re-apply. I had a CHL before but let it expire and be expired for a year (I was living in Alaska, but whatever the situation is in 4 years I won't do that again). So they have already seen my application and approved me before. Maybe those things helped. Then again, maybe I just got lucky and landed on the desk of someone who was not on vacation. So I guess I'll be checking the mailbox carefully the next few days. How long does it take from the time the DPS website updates with "license issued"?

And now if someone could tell me what the deal is with the Wally Walk. I have read the threads I could find and looked at the pictures, but stil don't get it.
