Austin received my package today. Now the wait. Don't know what's more agonizing--waiting for my CHL or a call that my Glock has arrived.

Why is the call agonizing? Go pick it up and take it to the range!
Time at the range is the best way to take your mind off the wait.

I mailed my information off on March 2nd & got my fingerprints done on March 5th.
I've been checking the website for a status change, but it keeps says, "License Status: Application processed online. Concealed Handgun Licensing is waiting on the receipt of required materials. Once the application and materials have been received by Concealed Handgun Licensing and processing has begun, a more detailed status will appear on this page..."
Do I just need to keep being patient or should I make a phone call??
Thanks!

I also mailed mine on March 2 and did fingerprints that same day. Mine has that "waiting on" message also. Patience, I guess.

Same here--except I emailed them just to see if they received my package and I get an email back from them says yes--they received it two weeks ago--then the website is updated that same day.

What is the link at DPS website to check status ? The one I look at is not showing anything. Or does it not update until all material is received ? I did online registration. Have fingerprinting done also. Going to mail the other documents tomorrow.

It takes a while to update. It took about two weeks from the day I mailed my packet (March 2) for the website to acknowledge that they had received it.
Yesterday (March 30) it finally changed my background check to "complete" and my license status moved to "manufacturing". So it looks like it will take around 30 days start to finish, give or take a couple. Not bad for government work, I suppose, especially considering how swamped that office is said to be right now.
