Re: How long did it take?
When I got my CHL they did not have all the detail on the webite that they do now.
The "mailed" designation did not exist IIRC.
The final step in the online notifications was "Application Completed" if I remember right.
Then you just had to wait.
And it was excruciating.
Mine took many months from start to finish.
I am glad that the process has been streamlined in the past year.
Congrats on your plastic!

Re: How long did it take?
I took the class Oct. 23 2010. Applied on-line and mailed my packet in on Oct. 26 2010. Received my plastic on Nov. 22 2010. On-line my status still says Manufacturing Pending. It has said that for a week or so.
Re: How long did it take?
21 days round trip. My status never changed from "Waiting..."
