I preregistered with the state online on June 13, took the class on June 23, and mailed my application in on June 25th. As of July 2, the site shows that they have still not even received it in the mail.

the last three people (me included) in the 'how long' took 33, 35, and 35 days. hopefully 5111 will have the same luck.

Were you all processed by the Dallas field office for the backgound check?

I was out of town last week and didn't have my PIN and couldn't check the status. Last night I was able to check and it had changed from Mailed Application Packet to Processing Application. So:
June 13: Preregistered with state
June 23: Took the class
June 25: Mailed Packet
July 12: Processing Application

I sat on the couch until we started filling out paper work. Then I went to the table and sat next to you while doing that.
Sorry about the confusion Mark G26
