How Often is the DPS Website Updated?

Post by rb4browns »

I talked to a nice lady at the DPS today who said my application was approved today. The website still reads "processing app." How often is the website updated?
I wasn't born in Texas but I got here as soon as I could!

It varies, sometimes the site won't be updated to "app. completed" until after you've received your CHL. Updating the status section on the DPS website doesn't seem to be a top priority for the CHL staff; however, they do seem to be processing the apps pretty fast these days.
Online CHL App Completed: 25JUN07
CHL App Packet Received from DPS: 29JUN07
CHL Class: 7JUL07
CHL App Sent to DPS: 9JUL07

DPS "Processing App": 25JUL07
DPS "App Completed": 15AUG07

Well, not all that fast. My PIN was issued Sept 5th. Btu I;m happy they have finally gotten it done.

Good deal, it's worth the wait.

As it turns out, when I logged on a few minutes ago (6:00am) the website now reads, "Application Completed - license issued or certificate active." :grin:
