The website didn't change but I got this e-mail Sunday so hopefully it is true.

79 days and counting.

Are they always send emails once your license is sent to printing and mailed?

I don't know, this is my first contact with them since everything was turned in and verified.

Everything seems to be random from what I've seen on the forum. If anyone else knows please let us know!

Hello to all,

I am new to this forum and just started what is apparently a lengthy journey to becoming a licensed carrier. I can say that the current wait times seem very long, however it just confirms that I should have completed this process years ago.

Current Time:

LTC Class: 3/26/16
Application and Supporting Docs Sent: 4/2/16 with same day confirmation email
Fingerprints Submitted: 4/4/16 with same day confirmation email
I am not even going to post any status update since it is apparent what my current status is

I guess I know what forum I will be glancing at over the next few months.

I do, however ask that if I am somehow an anomaly in the process that I receive minimal hate mail.

Thanks,

Kyle

All in 1/13- Still not a word or Website change. Gave up on calling because I get conflicting information. I have at least confirmed they did get all my paperwork on 1/13. Starting to think I should re-apply and get it sooner like these March Folks!!


I think these are right. Close enough anyway. Clean background.
Day 90
Business day 59


Still waiting and waiting and waiting.....

First post, glad to be here. Timeline:

Application (online): 12/27/15
Fingerprints: 12/30/15
Class: 1/9/16
Documents submitted: 1/9/16
Confirmation email ('START' date): 1/11/16

As of today, 59 business days have passed. And it appears those who started around the same time are receiving plastic. Fingers crossed.

UPDATE: Plastic in hand on 4/11.

It's been real, y'all.
