Hopefully if not tonight then by tomorrow you will have it. It took 6 days for me from when my status went to mailed to have plastic in hand and I live in the far west part of the state.Hrivera1 wrote:The wife said nothing for me in the mail but she is snicky so I have to wait till 9pm to be sure.

Wife says that my permit is sitting at home waiting for me to get out of work. Big thanks for everyone who answered my questions. 55 days mailbox to mailbox. 
Best of luck to everyone on the waiting room.

Re: "Waiting Room"
Hello all, great site here. Very informative. I've referred to this site numerous times and finally joined. Guess I'll post my dates here too.
1/26/13 - CHL class taken
2/13/13 - Submitted Application & paid Fee
3/02/13 - Fingerprints and Passport photo taken
3/04/13 - Mailed packet Certified mail
3/13/13 - USPS Delivery conformation
3/22/13 - Application processed online and awaiting on the receipt of required materials.
I'm curious, since I paid on February 13, would they have started my background check around that time, or do they have to wait until they receive my packet? It was 1 month from when I paid for everything until they received my packet. Just wandering and like most people, WAITING!!!!!!!

Re: "Waiting Room"
I don't pretend to know it all, but I would assume that nothing starts until the entire package is complete and received by DPS. Look around the board and you will see that a timeline similar to mine is pretty typical. Good Luck!ntxshooter wrote:Hello all, great site here. Very informative.

Re: "Waiting Room"
Howdy, new here. Just wanted to post my timeline for y'all.
Completed all the training and fingerprints before this.
DPS received docs with USPS confirmation - 2/20/13
DPS updated the site saying they had them and documents were all good - 3/25
Background check completed and manufacturing pending - 3/26
Background check completed in one day. Clean as a whistle. Apparently they overlooked the fact that I voted Romney.
For the record I'm an Englishman born to American parents abroad. Maybe that put my papers in a different stack.
