Got the plastic today. I am in San Antonio (Bexar county).

Listen to a news story today on the radio about the doubling of CHL applications this year. Said March apps were over 11,000, double from same time last year. The story also talked about the wait time doubling or tripling.

I am starting to see March apps getting approved. I'm in Bexar country and was born out of state so that may be adding to my delay. Status is still processing application.

Sent an e-mail on Friday asking when my PIN would be mailed to me. Got an e-mail back today giving my PIN #. Still have not got it via snail mail.

At least status says processing.

Joining the March list of the waiting. Great forum and learn something new every time I check in.

Retired Air Force so understand the hurry up and wait game.
