it actually goes one of several different ways because they just (within the past 4 months) changed the law. 1. you can mail a set of passport photos and have them use those. 2. Some CHL classes will take the pictures for you and you can just send those. or the new law allows 3. On the photo placeholder form, you can write "use current drivers license photo" and they will...they'll accept that as your photo now. :biggrinjester:

I just want to thank every member of this forum and especially those who have been a part of this thread for all of your support. Looking back, the wait wasn't too bad. However, it would have seemed longer without all of the wonderful fellowship that I have enjoyed over the last 30+ days.

Be safe... and if necessary... shoot straight.
