I did not think the state accepted any other electronic fingerprints Except those from FAST.

New to the whole CHL, a few LEO (friends of mine) are the ones that got me interested in it so here I am in the wait now. I am no stranger to the waiting process with the state, be it DPS TCFP or TX DHS, It's just the way it is.

Online App 1/28
Class 1/29
Mailed 1/30
Received by DPS 2/2
Still no online status.

So you got your CHL 2 days after sending your papers? Might want to clarify that "plastic in the mail" deal.

January must have been a fluke, as a lot of those guys were running 20 days and under. February seems like its back to the normal pace.
