If you think that is bad some of us with nfa items waiting for our stamps are looking at 180+ days of wait time.

Yep it's become a reflex just like breathing. I never knew my drivers license number before but now I can type it in my sleep. I know I have nothing on my record. My employer does a deep dive every year and it is more extensive then DPS so I can't imagine why it takes so long. I lived at the same residence for a long period of time and I've worked for the same company for over 10 years. I think its just the luck of the draw on who is assigned to your file. They're government employees so 5 standing around supervising the one that is working.

what is "nfa"?

I thought I was the only one. My wife could not believe that I never learned my license number, she said she had to learn it in Drivers Ed. I never bothered until I started checking the DPS website several times a day. I have had my TX license for 25 years.

I am still waiting on the mail delivery, hopefully today.

I agree this is a great site to read while you are waiting on the updates.

Don't sweat it; I just now got official word+website update that I'm pending manufacturing after 15 weeks, well beyond their cited timeframes, and no, they didn't need additional info from me, either...

I have to force myself NOT to be checking it constantly!

There are more of us. I, too, can recite my DL # soley based on frequent checking of my CHL status.

The good news is that this is a one time wait. I'd hate the prospect of going through the same through for renewals.

Well I had slowed down to cking the CHL website to about 5 times a day instead of the 20 or so I was in the beginning...the bad part about it is that I am DEAD serious.....not sure if anyone else does it so many times....LOL.....but to the point...


I was heading to San Antonio for business this morning so I cked it when I was getting ready at about 3:30am and it was still under review...I cked it about 15 minutes ago and there it was...



Manufacturing Pending ...
