*** Just an FYI for all of you still waiting and losing hope, on the CHL website, where it asks to contact them send an email to them and tell them to PLEASE expedite your application. Trust me it worked for me and my other 4 friends, and call everyday at around 8:30 and you will get through! I you mailed your CHL 100 email it to them as well. I only called once and they said noone asks to expedite through the email contact on their site and they have a different department that checks those. Please try that and i promise it works!

nothing yet for me.

After reading this I sent a very nice email, Not asking to make my app any faster but wanted to confirm that all paperwork and prints were received. I stated I know I have a long wait ahead of me but just wanted to make sure everything was in order as I didn't want to wait all that time just for a letter saying something wasn't turned in correctly. I thank them for reading my email and told them any info would help but if not I understand.

This was on March 15th and today I finally got a reply email saying that my license was printed and mailed yesterday March 25th.

My website hasn't changed yet but email says it's on the way.

Still waiting on my plastic..... Was really hoping it would show up yesterday or today since my website status changed. No luck.

So I'll just walk around my house carrying a little longer.........Fingers crossed for Monday!

I'm still waiting too. Looks like it is a race to the finish.

All in and conformation email 1/20 plastic in hand 3/25. I did not call or anything. I used to carry a gun when I was a cop so it wasn't that exciting for me to get the card. I figured that if you call and complain you paperwork will go to back of the line. We had a guy build a house near our small airport, he started complaining about noise . Guess whose house gets buzzed a lot.

Does anyone have a screenshot of what the website like looks like when it is processed and on its way?

[MWilliams66]

It will look like this when your app has been approved and your LTC is on the way

There had not been any rhyme or reason lately. Some got them quick and some longer, some called and emailed and some didn't. Some got answers to emails some didn't. It looks like it depends who's stack it got put in and how fast they worked. The next hurtle is how long it takes usps to get them from Austin to wherever you are. That could be an extra day or two.

I just hope mine gets here soon. This waiting is killing me. I got my end finished quickly and turned in, I would like the same from them.

Go to the range and practice carrying. You might as well train whilst you are waiting.

So I got that strange reply email saying my card was printed and mailed as of 3/25. I'm 45 minutes from Austin, usually mail up there is one day. Still nothing as of today. But our post office is a joke. No status change, no plastic as of 3/28... Hoping for tomorrow. Anyone else in a similar boat with the status not changing? I've lost all trust in what they say, so no plastic after three mail days coming from so close and no status change makes me highly suspicious...

I was all in around 1/6-8. Best of luck to all y'all still waiting and congratulations to those of you who have gotten yours!
