I see some counting from the time they took their class, some counting from when their checks were endorsed, and some of us counting from the time DPS actually received our apps. From what date are we supposed to count? (personally, I always thought it was the day they got your app, but what do I know. )

You are correct. The actual clock starts the day they receive the app.

Well after the painfull half our on hold. I was told the normal "waiting on background check, call back in the second week in September" Well my CHL will be a great Christmas gift?!

I decided to call and see what the issue was specifically and apparently DPS doesn't like an address in my employment history. The kind representative would not indicate which address they felt was not "correct" and there was no way I could give her the information over the phone . I think this is rather ridiculous, but that's just me.

I'd bet they don't like the address to my current and third-former employer which is a public institution in Texas, which, to my knowledge at least, does not have a physical address other than the name of the university. So, when I get the letter from DPS I think I'll have to call them and figure out what would make it a valid address to them. *sigh* This probably puts me back two months.

yes

I sent them an email and still no answer. I guess I will have to call.

i would definitely call . maybe you can be prepared for whatever additional info is needed by the time the letter arrives .
