Soon off to Wally-World!!!!

Congrats! Take pictures

Seems that people two weeks behind my timeline are getting theirs approved, what's holding up mine? I haven't even had a speeding ticket in the last 5 years, let alone anything else that would slow my application down.

Thanks man. Call or send them an email. I was pretty ticked off yesterday when I emailed them and did not get a response. Now I know why.

Actually, I called them last Wednesday, got through to Simone, who told me that actually my appliation was approved and completed, and that they would be sending it out early this week. As of now still "processing application." I feel that I just got the runaround to get me out of their hairs. So then I wrote a few letters to my state rep/senator and governer to let them know they need to address this problem whether it is understaffing, underfinanced, whatever. I know Chas has been working on this problem, but extra letters can't hurt.

Anyways, I can't blame anyone who wouldn't want to get their CHL because of the trouble involved. Classes, fees, and waiting for 3+ months, then having to renew and do the whole process again every few years, what a pain

Arg that is 2 other people who had their licenses issued before me even though DPS received on the same day...oh well

Anyone have odds on who gets theirs first?

Called a couple weeks back for an update, they said paperwork looked fine and were waiting on background checks.
