Has anybody had a change of address lately? Just curious what the wait time is?

Just got on line Friday (3/8/2013). Haven't heard back yet.
I was trying to get credit for my homestead exemption. My Dr. lic has only P.O. Box so I was going to use my CHL. It would have worked except that it has the wrong address. I hadn't noticed. It's the correct street number, but the wrong street. It's a similar name starting with the same letter. All I can think of is that auto fill poped in a guess and I didn't notice when I filled out the app.
I'll let you know when I hear anything.
Dr lic expies next year and I'll put the street address on it then.

I just did a change of address a few months ago. As I recall, it took about 3 or 4 weeks, about the same as my driver's license.

The good news is that nobody will cut the top off of your CHL and make you carry an additional 8.5x11 sheet of paper like they will if you go to DPS in person to change that one. I did 'em both online.
