FINALLY, some progress. I was the one who had a letter sent from DPS saying my background check resulted in an old property tax bill which wasn't paid in Dallas County. Never owned property there, and told DPS they had the wrong guy. Their 3rd party background check agency, I was told by DPS, doesn't always use SSN or DL info during their searches, so I had to defend my good name. When I faxed DPS (they never received by rebuttal letter via USPS apparently) last week the actual property tax record, which I pointed out was from 1987 when I was not yet of legal age to even own property, I guess they had a change of heart.

My status has finally changed from the norm to Application Completed - license issued or certificate active. 20 weeks after my app was received. Shouldn't be long now til plastic in hand!

Wahoo!

I've been told otherwise, but my DPS check status page says "Processing Application" as well.

I think the reason why so many have received the application complete status at one time is that they "batch the printing" - do a bunch at once.
I'm actually wondering if my status will change online.
Maybe a new poll - 1) I receive plastic first, or 2) my status changes before I receive plastic, Hmmmmm

and :chldancing
sorry, this is the only place where I could possibly do the MC Hammer Dance, no way my body could ever do this - It's Hammertime!
