You will have it before you know it. If all your ducks are in a row, it seems the DPS is processing the paperwork quickly. I love Texas.

When the DPS website site changed to the much awaited "change information" screen, my wife and I received our plastic in the mail 4 days later; 14 days after our CHL class and a total of 21 days after the first step I took which was doing the online application.

MUCH better than the days where it was a 40-70 day wait.

MIne took 5 or 6 days. I ordered the two holster package. One original IWB and one OWB, natural leather, right hand for the S&W M&P Shield 9mm w/ Crimson Trace Laser. Ordered tan leather loops also. $70. delivered.

I'm still messing around with the ride height, cant, etc. but I'm not real thrilled with the IWB. It's big. I like my sticky holster better so far. I may try a single clip IWB.

The OWB is fine. I only use it at the range.

My Alien Gear holster took about TWO MONTHS to arrive. Seriously. It's very nice though. I wear it at 4:30 position. Seems most comfortable and when I sit in the truck it doesn't interfere with the seatbelt.

The wait is OVER

Based on what I'm reading here (and elsewhere) I'm expecting to have my license at the end of the week. I'll update this when I get it.

Received it today - 9/26.

Alien Gear Holsters were also in the mail.

My timing, as usual, is perfect.

Congrats!

I already have an alien gear holster for my Ruger SR45. They are sweet.

Maybe.. just.maybe... since my status change happened a day after yours, maybe my CHL when be in tomorrow... fingers crossed!

JUST got status change on DPS website to include "change information" column. Anybody tell me what I can expect now???

From all that I have read in this forum, you are less than 7 days from getting the plastic!

I am in the same boat as you.

Woot woot! Hope so!!!

OK don't feel as bad when I read others having 30+ day wait times. Sure is a disparity between 13 day and 36 day wait times. O

How long after submitting documents did everybody else get confirmations? Do you only get the confirmation after ALL info is in or after the chl-100?

May be time for a phone call.

You guys are both ahead of us. We took our class 9-13, everything done and submitted 9-15 but we haven't received any confirmations and the site still has the generic "if you have submitted.... wait for processing time....." message.

Major bummer.

Here's my timeline:
8/25: Submitted online application
8/26: Class
8/28: FAST
8/28: Submitted CHL-100 online
8/29: Received email confirmation for CHL-100 submission
9/18: Status update

9/20: License received

seems everybody's processing time is going faster than mine.

Okay I can clear up the confusion. It was only the online application that he did for me prior to the class. The CHL-100 was done this last Monday. Anyway this puts me at class day +7. Hope I'm one of the lucky ones that gets his plastic early..

At least the type-A personalities in here can calm down now
