I received my card on November 20. Almost exactly one month longer than it took for my wife to receiver hers. About two months for her, three months for me.

"Application Completed - License issued or certificate active"

Well, that didn't take as long as I feared. Hopefully the holiday weekend won't hold up the mail too much. :???:

My status changed to 'Application completed - license issued' Saturday, < 30 days from submitting the paperwork. If I get plastic tomorrow, that'll be 30 days exactly.

Two more checking in. Where's the coffeepot? :tiphat:

{Please forgive the repetition; we posted this elsewhere yesterday, but realized we should have posted in the "Waiting Room." Are our reservations still good? :???: )

Sent the apps in Monday for Mrs. OldSchool (I keep asking her to register on the forum, but she won't decide on a user name... :roll: ) and me. Clerk told us it would take three days to get there. :yawn

Won't be a boring wait, as spirits are riding high: Mrs. OldSchool is still dancing on the ceiling after passing her pistol qualification with a .45 (well, me, too)!
