All I am trying to determine is if a friend of mine can his TX CHL.

Here is what I know as fact:
He is here on an EAD. Employment Authorization Document.
He can and has purchased a handgun legally.
- Passport
-3 months of bills
-TX hunting license
-3 day wait for background check

So he has legally purchased a handgun in TX.
Can he now get a CHL?

I am hoping to hear from an instructor who has had a student get one or someone who personally has one.

In my search, I have seen the law quoted and interpreted in about 30 different ways. That is why I am hoping to find someone who actually HAS a CHL.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!

Austinboy did you finally get to the bottom of this issue ................ i am an non immigrant alien and have both purchased guns and obtained my CHL . Let me know if you need additional clarification ............... i have been through the process and back again and i am well versed on the requirements.
thanks
