Quite the feeling, eh? I have had mine for about 2.5 years and I still remember waiting outside for the mailman to come. I promised myself I would savor the moment and open the envelope slowly, but I ripped open as quickly as possible.

Glad you finally got it!

Thank you, I will remember this sense of relief after it arrived. :txflag:

Yes Sir, that is what it shows, I got my first update at day 36 (submitted everything on 10/9), I have called them a few times as it didn't move at all between 36, and 54… then it moved all the way to mailed in less than 24 hours.

:txflag:


Well, I guess that is where I stand now....ugh tired of typing in my DL # SS#.
I agree, one thing is sure from this, I will never forget my DL number, LOL. :mrgreen:

Still waiting for any change in status from "Waiting for receipt of required materials"
The date they recieved my documents was 10/10… Got my first update at 36 days, then it has stayed that way sense…. Stuck on day 52 now… with nothing! :totap: :grumble

Today I made a point to call Austin again, the lady was very nice and said that my application is pending print, don't know what that means as the website has not updated sense my 36th day…. Going on 55 today, she said that it could take up to another month to process from this point which would put me way past the 60 days which is in 5 days…

Best of luck to all, seems like they are getting further and further behind. Someone posted earlier that they should employee more people, this would be true as they have more money come in from all the applications to support the additions to head count. :mad5 :totap:
Patience my friend. Many of those who have gone before you have waited much longer. Many in 07/08 waited 4-6 months. This too shall pass. Before you know it you'll be submitting your renewal. :mrgreen:
Thank you! :txflag:

Thanks, I will give them a call tomorrow. Hope this works…. :cryin :mad5 :banghead:
Mine was exactly a week.

I called them today, very nice person on the call. Said everything looks fine but it maybe another few weeks to a month as they have been slamed with instructor renewals and other current renewals as well. He made it sound like new applicants are being pushed to the back… :headscratch :mad5 :totap: :boxing
