As of today, still no packages received from my Jan 30 order. Did you receive certificates only? Or did you get packages too?

If for what ever reason the DPS need's us to give out a certificate with their # on it, I will make the certificates just give me the #'s. although I see no need for the certificate #. I think it would be better to have their CHL license # on the TR100 and the class completion form.

No kidding!!

Yesterday, I received certificates and TR-100s that were ordered Jan 30. Still no packages. If we were going to have to stock a 60 day supply to keep ourselves in business, if would have been nice if the DPS had shared that up front!

It sucks, but we are gonna have to deal with it.

Yeah, what sucks the most about it is that they take my money immediately and then send the certificates WEEKS later!

I don't know where you took your class, and I am not about to talk badly about another instructor, but... I have never let anyone leave one of my classes without everything they need to put in the mail to the DPS (except the check. They have to supply that! )

It could be that your instructor is waiting to receive certificates from the DPS. There have been some delays in getting those recently, and the TR100 needs that certificate number. However, the instructor can call the DPS and find out what certificate numbers have been assigned to him (or her) and then go ahead and put the number on your TR100. You won't have a certificate in your hand yet, but that doesn't keep you from sending in your application. Your instructor may not know that. I only found out recently.

I would call again and find out exactly what the holdup is. "We don't know when we will be able to mail them out" is not good enough.

Good luck!
