Hmm...Did you ever receive an email like this after submitting your app online? This was in my inbox a couple of days after my submission. If so, it makes me wonder if this was an inaccurate messaging.

"We have received CHL supporting documents attached to your recent email. Please allow up to six weeks for processing.

We will notify you by mail, if any further information or additional documents are required.

Ouch. Hopefully they'll square you away quickly.

I'm not anxious to know the status but rather if any further action is required of me prior to being able to relax and go into "wait mode" for up to 90 days. This is why I used the email form instead of calling. Generally speaking, an organization will have dedicated personnel working the email workbox as time permits (within certain time parameters). Had I never saw a status to begin with, I'd be less inclined to feel the need to make sure nothing was wrong. Providing a status then taking it away inherently causes concern.

Welcome to the forum.

Thanks.

Still no email response from DPS (other than the confirmation that they received my email request on 7/1). I figure I'll stay out of their phone queue until I have a more legitimate concern about the status of my application. There are a lot more folks with more reason to speak to somebody since I'm more of a lookie-loo at this point. I'm just not a fan of not knowing the status even if the status is "no update".
