Response to my inquiry:

I just heard back from the Department of Public Safety and they said both of your CHL's were sent to their vendor to be printed on 9-24-09. They typically send the license to the applicant after they get it back from the vendor, so it looks like both your CHL's are being processed.

Maybe that was your mail man's truck that was on fire!

Well, the DPS seems to have gotten their act together in the past couple of months. Logged in this morning and-

Application Completed - license issued or certificate active

That is great news, Ropin!

How about this? "Honey, I need to buy this xxxxx brand holster to make sure that I can protect the most precious thing in my life, my wife." Don't forget the my wife part...

You probably wouldn't recognize the place now. Shopping, shopping, and more shopping.

Thanks for the welcome. I am from Highland Village, a small city of 13,000 peeps just north of Flower Mound and Lewisville.

Howdy Folks! (in my best Big Tex voice)

I might as well join the party. I've been lurking for a while and figured I should share my pain. Misery loves company!

I got my first CHL back in the rush of '96 and I swear it didn't take as long as it does now. Here is a funny fact for you. To make the license process smoother and to even out renewals, DPS made half of the licenses good for four years and half good for two. Of course I got the two year plastic!

I rue the day that I found this site. I would have never known about the online status page that I now obsessively check every two hours. Arrrgggg!
