I only had to hold for about 10 minutes. Talked to a nice lady named Sherry. She said my application status had changed to "in process" on April 7th.
I had all my documents submitted by Feb 10th. She said that once the status changes to "in process" it generally takes about 30 days until they approve and send to print/mail.

Hopefully this time next month I'll have some good news!

There winging this that's for sure. No rhyme or reason why some get there's fast and some take forever. Maybe I'll call someday just to see what they tell me. Lol

This is what I got told as well, at least the 30 day part. They said my application was currently being reviewed by someone.

Contacted State rep today. Lets see what happens


Called RDS today. Spoke with a nice lady Ashley. Said I was approved yesterday 4/26. Should receive license in 10 -14 days. I used the trick of calling back several times in a row and got the Call back Robot. That seemed to work

So my dumpster fire of an LTC waiting experience is coming to an end. After receiving my Ltc with all the right info on it, but someone else's photo on it, I had lost hope that I would ever get to strut proudly through the stale air of wally world with my side arm fastened tightly to my hip. There may be hope after all! When I called to inform them of the mistake, they sent me to re-issue. When they did, my status change had disappeared from the website. I checked it this morning and I now have a new status change! Hopefully my license will be here soon!

I think it was about 6 days for me. When I called to get it re-issued, they said that they sent it out on 4/15 but I didn't receive it till the 21st. You wouldn't think that it would take that long to ship from Austin to Amarillo.

Much to my surprise I got a call from Austin (512-424-2000) this morning that I only answered to tell the telemarketer who keeps calling from various numbers wanting to reduce my interest rate to go to hell (again) and a nice lady from the DPS told me I had been approved and sent to print and should get my CHL in a few days :txflag: Did reach out to my local state senator and received an email asking for TDL#. Not sure if that helped but figured it couldn't hurt.

Been a long gestation period but looks like I'll be delivering my little CHL next week (the fastest 3 months of my life :headscratch

So this all started for me January 27th 2016.
As of today's date on March 27th 2016 I have my Plastics in hand.
Very excited, time to do my wally walk.
I guess I'll free up my space on the bench, and wish all of you guys that are waiting a good luck.
By the way, the website didn't update till today when I received it.

Mine hasn't updated either... I expect it to be closer to when I actually receive or actually do receive it.
