So uh I'm new but I made the time to make an account even though te security questions made me break out the old history books haha. But anyway. I FINALLY REVIEVED MY CHL. Whoop whoop.

I wanted to post what happened to me because I feel like it was a unique experience and everyone seems to be going through something sketchily different. I took my classes back in November and sat on the paperwork for a few months. (Stupid, as I quickly figured) but finally got around to getting my prints the last week of May. I couldn't find any clear answers about the passport photo, on whether I should send in a picture or if they use the DL photo the state has on record. . So I went ahead and paid to get a picture taken figuring better safe than sorry. I sent my packet certified (which the chl instructor made sound super official, but the lady at the post office was so chill. It was all just put into an envelope. Lol that blew my mind I thought it was going to be complicated) on June 20. Which was a fri. Certified to land in Austin that next Monday right after th weekend.

A full week went by and on the second Monday the tx dps website screen saying they were waiting on my packet and info etc disappeared. And the only thing that showed on the website was the option to apply for a chl instructor. Nothing else.

So this Monday (July 7) the screen changed again, only giving me options to change my adress. Change my info. Report a stolen or lost license etc. and today , June 11. I GOT THAT BAD BOY IN THE MAIL. Postmarked from Austin July 9.

I never got any screen saying what they had and what was ever processed. From mailbox to mailbox three weeks exactly (Fmailed on a Friday Recieved on a Friday.)

Pretty sweet. And btw. They used the DL PHOTO. So I think they tossed my glamour shots in the garbage, that or hopefully it was someone found me attractive enough to get on my application and now they are hanging on some strangers cubicle lol
