Tarrant, but it doesn't look like counties matter, i don't think they are doing it based on that. Two friends same county, same zip code, one received is under couple months ago, other has not received his yet. No denial, no issues.

I know, Its just that I live in Harris County and its taking them a long time to get the background checks back to the DPS. I asked the lady at the DPS and she said The Gulf Coast County's especially Harris is taking a long time to send them the background checks. I figured if I started seeing people from Harris get their applications completed it would give the people in my area a good idea of when to expext theirs, thats if they have lived here all their life. I understand that if you have lived in a lot of places it takes even longer. But thanks to all who are putting their County on their udates. I really appriciate it!
