Citizen J, phrogg,

Welcome to the waiting room, and the forum. I hope your wait is short. You might check the Jan, and Feb applications to get an idea of the wait times. The DPS is doing a great job in turning the apps around quickly. :txflag:

Finally sent mine in yesterday! Took the class in 2005 and let time run out before I sent it in. Oops! :nono:

BTW, with the paper form (not printed off dps website) do you have 1 year or 2 to send it in?

Yep, I keep checking the USPS site to see if it arrives today. With all the mail going to Austin for the IRS it might get bogged down :???:

Well the wait begins for all of you. Hope the wait is a short one.

You know you can keep track of the wait period by keeping a 'time line' of your progress, and not have to keep re-typing it.

It's done by going into the user control panel.....click on user profile tab at the top.....edit signature.

you have a total of 200 characters so don't be to wordy. :tiphat:

New to the forum.
My paperwork arrived at DPS last Thursday and I'm trying my hardest to wait patiently for my pin.
