Why some wait and some don't?

Long wait for CHL
4/13/11 CHL training
4/14/11 Mailed
5/11/11 Background Check: Under review
7/6/11 Manufacturing Pending

After waiting 79 days after the State received my app and 55 days under review I called just to see whats up! Oh! your app is complete and pending manufacturing. My son and I classed together, I sent my app in five days before he and he received his CHL in 32 days. What is going on? Why so long for some and others only 18 days?

lazy DPS employees. Not all of them are ofcoarse, but I think you and I got the same one processing our app.

Mine took 30 days from class to in hand.

UH oh i have this feeling that 18 days is quickly becoming a four letter word. I meant it as a beacon of hope of how fast the state had gotten

For a while it seemed they were getting quite a few out in under 30 days.

I sent an email and got the response "please allow 60 days for processing" :( !

Call them, they check to see whats going on and tell you.

Not necessarily, I called and they said, "It is under review. We have 60 days to process it."
