After getting perturbed and e-mailing the Governor's office, I got a call from Heather this AM saying that my license was going out today. Web Site still shows "processing application". I presume that it is actually being sent and the web site is just not updated.
125 day mark was today. Hopefully the mail doesn't really take 10 days to get to Houston from Austin. I could ride a bicycle there and back a couple of times in 10 days.

Re: April Applications
Looks like Heather was right. It took 24 hours, but the web site updated this AM and finally displayed the message we all wait for:
Application Completed - license issued or certificate active
126 days from receipt of application to getting this message.
Now we have to see how long the USPS takes to get a letter from Austin to Kingwood.

Re: April Applications
ABN556,
If you're lucky you could have it by Saturday. If not Saturday, then Tuesday for sure. Kingswood isn't that far from Austin, is it? Congrats-I know it's been a long wait.

Re: April Applications
It may have been Mrs Oldgringo-6 months or more from my recollection. Don't know if there was anyone who waited longer.
