Slow & (almost) Painful Timeline

#1

Post by smschulz »

* Class Taken ~ 6/10
* Packet Mailed ~ 6/19
* Recieved Pin (Letter Date) ~ 7/18
* Changed from "Processing" to "Application Completed - license issued or certificate active" ~ 9/28
* Received Card in the Mail ~ 9/29


Seems like it took forever but the wait is finally over.

That doesn't look like a fun wait, but congrats. I am starting to wonder what other factors come into play regarding how long the process takes. For example, maybe it has something to do with whether or not you have any criminal history that needs researched, the county you live in, your residential history, job history, or maybe just the person that is processing your application. I think it is ridiculous that some people get theirs in like 30 days while others take 90+. What do you think?

Not sure ether...no history issues on my part perhaps there was just alot of apps inline of maybe the person(s) in charge of my area (Houston) was overloaded. But no definitve reason IMO.
