So, your CHL Application has been filed and the clock has slowed to a crawl - tell us about it!

Is this normal?

Post by thelurker »

OK, I took my class with some nice folks in Roanoke in late September. I sent my package in and DPS signed for it on 9/26/08. It's been almost one month and the only thing the DPS website says is this...

"No application or license/certificate active."

Is this normal??? I would think it would read "Processing" by now... :waiting:

make sure you're interrogating for CHL and not for "CHL Instructor"

apparently it's easy to do

Don't feel like the Lone Ranger. I'll bet almost everyone on this forum did that (including me) at one time or another when checking their status! :mrgreen:

True, but I had the link saved as a favorite, so I had no chance of getting it right until today! At least now I know they're processing my app, and there's really not some crazy conspiracy. Now I must go check again... :totap:

Quickest way to loose your sanity is to keep checking.
I checked to make sure they sent the packet, again to make sure they recieved the packet and so far thats it.

Okay, off to check.

Okay, been 10 minutes, time to check again. :evil2:
