I called DPS and their automated recording asked that we wait 30 days from submission of the documents before inquiring as to their status. I will try next week I suppose if nothing has been updated by then.

Maybe I should have mailed mine instead of e-mailing the documents. :???:

I'm thinking the same thing SQLGeek. I emailed mine in on the 5th of May, got a response that they were received and forwarded for processing on the 10th, and I've been watching for an update since then but it still says it's waiting on documents to be received. I called yesterday and actually got a lady on the phone who said that it could take up to 8 weeks before document status is updated.

Well I'm glad at least to hear that somebody else who emailed the documents in is encountering something similar though I am sorry you are. I wonder if they are waiting to further update our status until another change is in place since they already emailed us that they received the documentation? Who knows, I'm just speculating at this point. I'll continue to wait and will keep practicing carrying around the house.

Hi,

I'm in the same boat as you guys. My instructor told the class that if we snail mail our documents it is taking about 60 days but emailing the documents are only taking 30 days. For this reason I emailed the docs, now I'm thinking I should have sent them via regular mail.

Application - 5/14
Fingerprints - 5/20
Class - 5/26
Emailed Docs - 5/26

Status - Waiting on Docs.

Still waiting here per the site this morning. The agonizing part is not seeing any status update at all to know if they think they still need some piece of information or not.
