Re: November waiting

I received my new plastic in the mail Friday, 1-17-14. Using all my fingers and toes a couple times over tells me this is in the neighbor hood of 63 days since I mailed in my renewal. Good luck to the rest of you, it won't be long now. I have not received an email, but I did log in and I see my stat...

Re: May 2009 Applications

Called up DPS on Wendsday, the person that I spoke with said that my app was on hold, but she could not tell me why. She transfered me to the tech who was working on my app. Well, more accuratly, she tranfered me to the tech's voicemail, so I left a message. I called back today and was told that my...

Re: Still waiting.....

Perhaps it is not just a stall tactic. This morning I checked my status and it now says "Application Completed - license issued or certificate active" Now I just need to wait for the mailman.

Re: 100+ Club

I didn’t want to do it, but here I am.


As of today I am now at 102 days. I don't know if this is due to the indiscretions of my youth, or just the glue like slowness of the bureaucracy. Either way they keep saying it’s the local background check that is slowing things down. Hooray Hidalgo county!

Re: April 2009 Applications

Ok guys strap yourselves in for this story cause it makes NO sense at all!!!!!

Re: Galveston County

Nope, I live and work in Galveston county and have for the last 8 years. I had heard that Galveston County was moving much faster than Harris County, but apparently that turns out to be completely false. From what I have read, there are mountains that move faster than Harris county backgroud checks...
