Renewed online, sent affidavit/checklist on Monday. Today shows all in place with fingerprints and background check pending. Oh yeah, no renewal necessary.

Ok, I've finally took the plunge and submitted the paperwork and now I'm at the waiting phase. My concern is that I've not seen any updates on the app, even tho I'm certain they have received the paperwork a week ago,so we wil call this day 4. Comments appreciated, thanks

Ive seen updates every day of the week except Sunday. I have received an update on a Saturday. Sorry but I guess that means you have to stay close to the PC tomorrow... If it does update on a Saturday it will be early in the morning.

Hey Scoots, welcome to the waiting room. My paperwork was delivered on September 2nd and DPS didn't update the web site till the 9th. Sit tight and don't do what I did. I let it drive me crazy and in the end it wasn't worth it. They are taking about 4 - 6 weeks to get you your plastic. If you have a clean BG and there is nothing for them to follow up on it will be closer to 4. If they hav eto look into something it will be closer to 6. Good luck.

I'm afraid all one can do is resign to not having their plastic for a few more weeks and relax (that advice has to work for someone if not me).
Its a shame that once you decide that you need personal protection, you have to wait for two months to be allowed to carry. Be sure to tell any would-be attackers to hold off and check back with you then.
