You may be seeing that message for a while. They have had my paperwork as well as others for a week with the same message.

If my wife and I are any indication, you will indeed see the "waiting on reciept of required materials" status for a while. Per return reciept, our required materials were delivered Sept. 28 and our status has not changed from the "waiting" yet. The wait continues....

Best of luck to you.

Mine has said that for 2 weeks. I emailed them today and got a reply this afternoon:

Update... As of today, the packet has been received and updated in the DPS system. I lied before, the return receipt said that they actually received it on Sept. 29. The wait now enters a new phase of watching items get checked off (fingerprints and background check are pending). Baby steps...

My Status just changed October 13th also. My wife sent the packet out on the 29th of Sept. by regular mail (with no way of nowing when it actually got there).

I just hope it doesn't take too long. My SuperTuck is on it's way as well, so it can at least wait till I get that so I can carry easily when the plastic gets here.
