Thanks for this information on processing times folks. DPS is doing a fantastic job and it doesn't appear that lowering the state fee has caused a backlog problem.

Frustrating seeing people waiting less than 2 weeks for their plastic. What could possibly be taking so long?

Any arrests on your record? Behind on taxes? Child Support? Military convictions? Expired CHL-100? Unknown warrant like for unpaid tolls? Lots of things can delay that.

I got a ticket 10 years ago for fireworks in Iowa. Pled guilty and payed the fine. As far as taxes go, we're current but are still paying from 2015. Surely that would be the only road block?

Your fireworks ticket couldn't have been a felony, so that won't matter. The only taxes Texas cares about are those collected by a Texas taxing authority. If you have a repayment agreement, then even Texas taxes won't be a problem.

I just had a student (Forum member) let me know he got his in 12 days.
