Wei just checked my status and its now manufacturing pending. That pretty fast seeing as they recived my application 7 days ago. From the looks of other people's status maybe I'll receive my licends next weekend, hopefully.

Good for you. That sounds like record time. :hurry:

If mine isn't updated by Monday I'll be calling the DPS to raise a little H377. :mad5

I called the CHL dept. today and they said they received everything June 30, 2011 and are just waiting on my background check to come back. Since I was 18 I have only received 3 speeding tickets and I am 24 now. It seems like everyone has had pretty quick turnaround on their applications and mine is still under review after 6 weeks. The only thing I can think of is that I just finished college in 2009 so I moved around a lot from 2005-2009. Is that what could be holding up the review?


Thanks.

Unfortunately, some of us:
Lived out of state in the last 5 years
Traveled to China, Hong Kong, Macau on business in the last two (on a Visa)
Have held a clearance in the military
Had more than a few redacted orders
Worked for NATO for time
Traveled all over Central/South America/Europe for NATO and the USAF (NATO orders, no Visas)
Have had a recent ID theft (No Mr Bank, I did NOT move to Houston last week)(No Mr IRS, that is my child, no one else can claim her)
-Voter registration also thinks I moved

I'll be all of the 60 days or more :(

8 days and counting since I went 'Under Review'
