Well, at least the Postal Service is timely (but then again Marble Falls is only 45 minutes from Austin!) At any rate, the process is going forward!
Pkg Received in Austin: 9/1/09

Hooyah!

if you check the May and June sections you will see that the DPS is really cranking out the CHL's the past 2 weeks - some are now less than 90 days. if they keep this up you might be looking at only ~60 days! good luck Chief

As you know, I received my notice last night that DPS received my pkg via mail. Checking the DPS site this morning, I see this:
"No Application or License/Certificate Active"

What does this mean?

It generally takes them some time to get it into the system.
In the past, this has been 30-60 days. However, recently, we have seen numbers as low as 12 days.
Give it 2-3 weeks for them to get it into the system. If you don't see something by then, then you might want to call and inquire.

Also, you might have incorrectly clicked on the Instructor link instead of the CHL application link :thumbs2:
It should say 'packet mailed to applicant'. Try it again, and make sure you clicked the correct link on the page.

You are/were right! I obviously linked to Instructor vice CHL. It says "package mailed to applicant" (just like it said before I mailed the pkg in. Will wait the requisite time before I start getting "hinky" - NO NOT "KINKY!"
