I'm on a month and 9 days myself. I feel your pain.There's a lot of us in this boat. I'm going on 2 months....NOS wrote:Texasfinest wrote:Time is going by so slow! It will be a month in 3 days since DPS received my packet. Where is a time machine when you need one.
To top it all off, I'm leaving for vacation at the end of the week. I was really wanting to have my CHL by then. Last years vacation presented the two incidents that prompted me to finally get my CHL. I pray that nothing happens while I'm on vacation out of state and not carrying.budroux2w wrote:There's a lot of us in this boat.

We go on vacation Aug 15th and hopefully I will have mines. Like you said I really don't want to leave here without it. I don't want it to be a situation where I need it and not have it.NOS wrote:To top it all off, I'm leaving for vacation at the end of the week. I was really wanting to have my CHL by then.

I'll have to wait until I get back to find out if it came in the mail.

I'm wondering if this is possibly because he was fingerprinted for a job in Florida many moons ago - during the Nixon presidency.So how long did it take from Austin to your mailbox? Mine mailed on 7/23/10 and I have not got it yet, although I would expect to have it by Saturday. I was thinking to myself that I have never seen something go through the USPS so slow. Does DPS has a special "really slow shipping" program with the postal service or something? It is odd to me.TexasTony wrote:Well, my plastic arrived yesterday in the mail!
