Yeah, that just doesn't seem right. I'd definitely give them a call.

Took your advice and called DPS. They said I should have gotten it 6 wks ago. "Their fault". They said they would print it and get it out right away.

Got it June 10th. It took over 4 months mailbox to mailbox. 123 days.

Almost seems like the "luck of the draw" when it comes to processing at DPS. Hang in there men :txflag: I got my plastic in 62 days from box to box.

I'm at day 76...Around day 45, I called TxDPS and was told in can take a minimum of 60 days JUST for a status change. Generally I'm a patient individual, but after seeing the late February applicants receiving their cards between 60-70 :txflag: , I'm thinking day 77 (tomorrow) warrants a friendly call to my friends at DPS. :txflag:

doesnt hurt to try early, but your signature says you did your fingerprints on 5-13-14, so not quite 60 days. From what it reads under the code, its 60 days once the dept has received your documents into the system. Did you get an email confirmation?
