This might take a while. I've moved a lot of places. I'm hoping that I get luck and get it before Christmas.

Wife's schedule is about the same.

Will keep you posted.

The felony was dropped and all of the other charges were deferred, probation on all three). The last arrest was 14 years ago. I don't really talk about that part of my life much, but I spent some time worrying that these things would delay my CHL and they didn't. I'm divulging this info to help ease the mind of the next person who comes along with a past they aren't proud of. I just called the DPS helpline to make sure that the status change meant that I was approved and was told by the representative that the license was mailed yesterday. My plastic could come in today, but more likely it will be tomorrow.

So far that's 17 days since the application was submitted. I supplied letters of disposition for the adult arrests at same time I uploaded all the other documents. I think this may have helped things along. I called on 11/17 to make sure that they had received everything (and to try to subtly pump the rep for info). I was told that they had a hit on my criminal history and that they would have to investigate and make sure that the arrests weren't disqualifying. Pumped!
