This popped up! My plastic must be on the way! I get to go home Sunday, so hopefully it's there when I check the mail Monday morning! It won't do a whole lot for me, but need and don't have it, then I'd be crying. 7 Weeks and 3 days for status change. Looks like they're still gonna meet the 60 day mark, even with my snags!

And here I am clawing at the walls with 36 days... Still no change; called and confirmed they received all my paperwork. Should contact officials I voted for this mid-term elections; get them to cash the vote they got from me...

You're not alone. I'm on day 38 and haven't gotten anything from them either.

I would be satisfied if I don't have to wait as long as you already have.

But I know it's going to be a while, but I just want to get some reassurance that they received it!

Give them a call at (512) 424-7293. They will usually at least tell you whether or not they have received your information. Whether or not you get more information than that seems to depend on who you get.

I called the number provided, and after a 30min talk with the extremely helpful gal on the other sode, she had discovered that my packet was never recieved, and at this point, it could be assumed it is lost. The sent me a letter, but in my letter to them, I sent a notifcation of mailing Address change, they they sent it to the wrong place. She then advised me to email or fax them the papers, and I advised her I am deployed to a worksite for 30 more days, and that I have no access to a scanner or fax machine. She then told me that if I could get a good photo of my papers, and emailed them in Jpeg format? I think I can do that off of my I-phone 4, and email it from here in the middle of nowhere! Do ya'll think it will be the right format for them?

This is my first post on this forum. I've been reading the amazingly short times that people have been receiving their CHLs within for the last couple months, and I am perplexed.

Here is my situation:

- TX DPS received all of my CHL materials on August 18th (I got the confirmation email from them, after submitting everything online)
- I am almost 60 days out now, and I haven't heard a peep from them with no CHL in hand.
- I am a former CHL holder with still as squeaky-clean a record as I could have. This is a new CHL. My old one lapsed.
- I have emailed them twice (with no response), and I called them a few weeks ago only to be told that there was still a "routine background check" to do that would put me past 60 days, most likely.
- My app status on the TX DPS website still has not changed.
- Ugh.

Does anyone have an idea what's going on? Thanks, and I look forward to the forum.
