WOW

I went on the web site just to see if they update my status and low and behold it did...

I have not recieved it yet but it actually says its in the mail!!!
Just under 60 days (60 days this coming Monday), as we chatted on this forum before I have been in the military for 19 years and lived all over so I guess it took longer due to the background checks. If you are in the same boat have faith. I will let you all know when I have it in hand.
God Bless the troops!!!

Finally a change on the CHL website.

Mailed: 11/15/10
Received Letter Rejecting my fingerprints: 12/10/10
Went to L1 to have fingerprints done digitally: 12/13/10
DPS has received everything as is waiting on the background check and fingerprints to clear: 1/6/11

Now I'm just playing the waiting game. Pretty frustrating. My dad mailed his 11/16/10 and has already received his. Makes me mad. What can go wrong, will go wrong.

Agreed, it is, but as you have found this forum, hopefully you have made good use of your time without your CHL, to learn a lot more

Remember if you have moved around a lot it can take a while. Be patient (as hard as it is, trust me I know). I wish everyone the best in the waiting room.

God Bless those that fight for our rights.

Mailed my app on 11/8. Received at DPS on 11/10. Received plastic today, 1/10. So it was exactly 2 months from the time DPS received app until I received plastic. I have to say, it feels strange carrying the first time in public, but I am sure I will get used to it!
