My timeline thus far...
LTC Application 12/01/2016
Fingerprints: 12/9/2016
LTC Class 12/17/2016
LTC Supporting Documents Received 12/19/2016

This is the fourth state in which either I and/or my significant other has gone through this process (UT, NH, MA and now TX). Of the four, I think NH ranks top of the list. TX is in a tie for last with MA and is sinking fast...

Update as of 1/7/2017:
My wife, son and I have all been going through the process together. We have the exact same timeline. My son received his LTC on 1/5/2017. YAY! However, my status (which is no status) has not changed.

So this leads me to believe that one or more of the following may be occurring:
- They are doing some form of triage (fast tracking some applications at the expense of others)
- They don't really have the process, tools or infrastructure to plan, track and report progress. In essence a chaotic or ad hoc process.
- They have Single Point of Failures (SPOFs) within their own process flow (e.g. an approving manager goes on vacation for 2 weeks)
- Other organizations outside of their own have an ad hoc process
- Handoffs between organizations are broken resulting in delays
- I am not worthy
