would you believe there are some folks that take the course,mail in the stuff, and kinda forget about it until 2 or 3 months later when they're checking the mailbox and "Oh this must be from that CHL course i took a long time ago"

I do this all the time with things I order online. Order and forget about them, and when they come, it's a surprise!

"What Did I order now?" I ask myself frequently when I get home from work, and there's a box at the door :)

But my CHL? Nope, that's a little more important then the sets of 1911 grips I seem to keep buying.

Btw usa1, looks like you and I should be receiving plastic about the same time ;)
Where did you take your course at?, you took it the same day as I did.

My wife is like that. She took her class a week after me. I check my status every several days, but she hasn't even thought about her CHL since submitting her application. She got her PIN in the mail a couple week ago and even though I told her she could check her status online, she hasn't done it as yet.

I never checked my CHL status. I also don't check my IRS refund status.
