Yeah... she was dead wrong. I'm glad you finally got the right info. The local DPS offices only have knowledge of the driver's license laws. Only Austin, CHL division, handles CHL stuff. Don't trust anyone else.I spoke with the Dallas office of Texas DPS (the Austin office was to busy to answer the phone). The woman there was helpful, but I question her knowledge.
Oh... and sometimes, you can't always be sure about Austin either!
