Maybe it just takes some venting on a web forum to move things along...?

60 calendar days later, I received plastic in the mail today!

The first time I had a CHL, I got it in under 30 days, and that was about 10 years ago. I can't say I'm confident that they are moving any faster these days, but I'm glad mine finally came. I wish the rest of you a speedier process than mine!

Hello all.

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.
