Hopefully SOON!

Post by HDFord4x4 »

Hello All!
This is my first post on the board but I have been lurking for a few months. I have learned a lot, and am looking forward to continuing to learn on this CHL Journey! It felt like time flew up until last monday when I checked the DPS Site and it finally said something otehr than application recieved :woohoo but now I cannot seem to stop checking :banghead: I even checked the DPS site last night @ 9PM (yeah like someone was going to magically update a govt. website on a sunday)

Anyway, I'm glad to be here! :cheers2:

I am in the same boat. I took the class the same time as you and mailed it off two days later. I took the class with my wife and some friends. My friends "Hand delivered" their packets and it mailed out today. My wife's moved to manufacturing pending and mine is still under background review. I hate being patient.

Know the feeling. You'll get it soon. My guess is that you'll get the card before DPS updates the website. Guess it's standard operating procedure in many cases.

Pretty cool feeling, huh? Does not give you super powers, but it makes you feel stronger.

That's encouraging to hear! My DPS update changed to MAILED yesterday.

Hope they move mine as fast!
