Today is day 50. I mailed the app on 3/28, but I don't know when they received it, so I'm going with April 1 to make the math easy. However, that's another story which concerns another fine nameless goverment institution.

Birthday next week. What are the odds I will see the plastic by then? Not good? Well, if not I maybe get a 4 year 9 month license...

Stay tuned.

If you were old enough to remember the song, I'd hearken back to Gale Garnett's "We'll Sing In The Sunshine".

I called this morning and spoke to Chris. I was told that my plastic was in the review stage before its mailed out. That sounds to me like its lost in a pile on someones desk. 90 days today and 103 since it was mailed. :banghead:

Hi, ya'll. I filled out the CHL application on-line around April the 3rd and it took about a week to arrive, then I took the CHL test on Saturday April 26th., sent in my application on Monday April 28th (certified with signature confirmation) and DPS received it on April 29th. I am coming up on 30 days and no PIN as of yet. From what I have read here it looks like I am in for a very long wait..... I do appreciate this forum very much and I have learned a lot from reading all of the post.

In an email correspondence I received from the State, I was informed that the status page is not indicative of the actual status of my application. Specifically, in my case, the fact that I did not have a pin does not mean they aren't working on my application. In other cases I have read here on this forum, folks go from mailed packet to approved in a few day period. I doubt that they are updating that status page(for all applications) on a regular basis.

Day 79 today. No status change. Still says "Packet mailed".
Ben Franklin once stated that beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy. I tend to agree with him.
