CHL Denial

[shefferiii]

My CHL was denied due to it has only been 4 years since my Class B Mis for driving with a invailed drivers lic. The five year point is June 2013. Whats my steps moving forward? Do I go thru the whole process again next year? Classes, finger prints etc etc..???

Someone smarter than me will come along soon, but I believe the course qualification certificate is good for 2 years, so you should not have to redo that.
However I think the fingerprints, as they are done via L-1, are unique to each application.
Which means, you will most likely have to pay for and fill out a new application, and redo your prints.

I also think you will just have to wait and resubmit everything. I don't know if you'll have to take the course again or not since you don't have the original CHL-100 to resubmit.

Didn't you know the 5 year window wasn't up yet?

when did your probation become complete? community supervision has to be completed for 5 years not just the conviction.

...I was corrected from thinking it's years from the completion of sentence...the law says in GC411.172 (a)(8) "...in the five years preceding the date of application, been convicted of..."

I'm sorry, I must have missed that in the eligibility requirements. Would you care to tell me where I could find that?

If the June 2013 date takes you past one year from the time you originally submitted (and paid for) your application, you will need to submit a new one and pay once again.

it states in Texas code of criminal procedure that a final conviction is not entered until any court ordered community supervision or other programs ordered by the judge are completed, be that a defered adjudication or probation as a sentence in and of itself without defered adjudication. for reference its 42.12, it also limits probation to 2 years for misdemeanor conviction and 10 years for felony level conviction, it also allows that anytime the probation is violated the judge may remand the convicted violator to jail to finish the sentence. since it does say in the law that you may not have a chl for 5 years after the final conviction, hmmm yep that covers it
