I've been. Waiting since January 27. I emailed the state this week and got this response today:
I wanted to follow up with you regarding the LTC Application status. I submitted your information with DPS and they were going to forward it over to RSD for processing. If they haven't done so already, someone from DPS should be reaching out to you regarding your license status within the next few business days. They did inform me, however, that hundreds of similar inquiries have been coming from other legislative offices around the state, so the process is being slowed down significantly. To date, DPS has seen a 139% increase in LTC application filings versus 2015 - in addition to these legislative office inquiries.
Please don't hesitate to reach out to me if I can be of further assistance.
Not fair at all.
DPS doesn't make money off the revenue generated from LTC Applications. The money is deposited to the General Revenue Fund where the biggest budget items-therefore legislative priorities are Higher Education, K-12, Medicaid- Prisons/Corrections.
Full time positions are allocated again, by the legislature that meets for 90 Days every two years.
Your angst is misguided
