Was all in March 30. Plastic finally came in the mail yesterday. Looks like ill be doing my wally walk when I get home. Ive got some errands to run and the fun of school supplies shopping with the kiddos. :anamatedbanana all in all it was a bit of a wait (126 days) but hey atleast I've got it finally. Anyone else still waiting from march/april timeframe or earlier?

Glad I found this forum, it has been very useful so far, especially this thread. Kudos to the Godfathers. Browsing through I saw some pretty lengthy and troubled time lines compared to others that were short and easy. Good luck to every individual in the Waiting Room. Here's what I have so far.

Application July 20
Class July 21
Supporting Documents July 21
Confirmation of receipt via Email July 21
Confirmation of all documents via Phone July 22
Status Page Aug 2
Background Pending Aug 2
Background Complete Aug 3
Print Pending Aug 3

Overall 12 calender days or 8 working days from all in.

Does anyone know the approximate time frames for printing and if they mail out on any specific days?

Should I have a status page if I was all in on on the 24th? I then submitted the bar code on the 26th, but already had everything else in already. My page still says they are awaiting docs.

From what I've seen, usually 8-12 days for a status screen to appear, possibly the 4th or the 5th if every thing is in fact turned in. Have you called to verify prints were accepted?

These status items are yellow
Fingerprints : Under review
Background Check : Under review
License To Carry A Handgun : Print pending completion of application review
All other status items are green.

The previous renewal went much more quickly despite having to mail in all the required materials as was the requirement back then. Current wait time is 3 months and counting.
Update
Reached out to RSD via email. Received an encouraging response 9 days ago. Still no plastic. 103 days and counting.
Update
Still no plastic. 116 days and counting.

Took chl class 7/25
Application filed at almost midnight on 7/25 after the course
CHL100 submitted 7/26
fingerprinted 7/27

First detailed listing of status on 8/4 with all green except background check, which is under review.

Sounds like this b/c could take 3 days or 3 weeks.

It looks like there was a lot of movement for people yesterday. I finally got all greens except my background check and print. Another guy on the boards had his background check completed in a day. Feel bad for those who waited 90+ days. That's ridiculous
