Last night I checked online and found that my status had changed to "Application Complete". To my complete surprise, my CHL card was in today's mail. Below is the timeline that I experienced:

August 9th - Completed class
August 10th - Mailed application and payment
September 14th - Received DPS letter with PIN dated Sept 12th
September 26th - DPS online was updated to "Application Complete"
September 27th - CHL card arrived in the mail today

I am both excited and awed with my accomplishment, since CHL is such a great responsibility. I prayed tonight for Jesus to help me in this new endeavor. He has helped me before when I really needed it.

Tomorrow, I may go to WalMart, but not for nachos - hate that plastic cheese. Now, I am really looking forward to the Forum day at PSC on Saturday. There is so much to learn.

I don't know why mine went so smooth, but our instructor was very demanding that we fill out the paperwork with very deliberate effort. Maybe that it why. Hopefully, the folks in Austin have found a way to improve their performance.

I got my CHL after I started working for TSRA. I received my license in the mail 25 days after I MAILED it...

Of course, my employer was listed as Texas State Rifle Association, and my title was on there too. Surely, that didn't make a difference?
