So the weirdest thing just happened at work....my plastic came in the mail...im very happy but very confused lol. Why would it come to my work address?

What address is on your CHL?

My home address is on my chl. It's really weird.

Do you work at home?

Congratulations!!

See I told ya, like um 3 days in a row it would be here and I finally got it right!

Coming to work is weird, I guess they heard you when you said you were going to have to work late every night!

Mailed all checklist items March 1, online status and pending BG check since April 2. Hopefully, everything is complete and the online status is just lagging...

Status has finally changed to MAILED!! I'm really hoping it will show up before hitting the road for vacation next week.

Oh man! That's strange & can't imagine that was supposed to happen, unless you listed that address as your mailing address.

unless you listed that address as your mailing address

thats what I was thinking, verify the address on the CHL, and if it shows your work address, you need to do a change of address and pay the $25 or so. Don't put it off.

The address on my license is my home address. I dont even remember seeing a place to put a shipping address.....was there a place?

I mailed my materials on Febuary 16th, and USPS reported that they received by DPS on 02-19-2011. My application has been waiting background check for over a month and the total number of days is at 69 as of today. I emailed at 61 days and received a form email that stated that my application is being processed and that I am responsible for for any requested forms or materials. I have not received any requests for additional materials from the DPS. I have read in other forums that DPS is notorious for not sending or losing additional info requests. I called and left a detailed message for, "Marion". The customer service representative informed me that Marion was handling my application. After not hearing back from Marion for a couple of days, I called again. The customer service rep told me that Marion was, "clearing out", my application and that I should receive my plastic in two weeks. I'll believe it when I receive it. If your CHL has not arrived in 60 days, I am informed that you are wise to follow up immediately to see what the problem is.
