2018 New LTC Processing Timeline...

#1

Post by R8RN8N »

Here's a breakdown of my timing:

1/3 - Fingerprints
1/6 - Class Completed (and upload all docs to website)
1/10 - Online Status Available - Pending B/G check
1/18 - Pending Print
1/22 - Mailed
1/xx - Card In Hand (patiently waiting...)

I assume I'll get the card later this week - which will put me right at (or just over) three weeks total time from start to finish...

Hi! Here’s been my experience so far.

Applied on DPS website - 2/23/18
Took course - 2/24/18
Submitted documents - 2/24/18
Prints taken - 2/26/18
Confirmation of documents received - 2/26/18
All checks green except for background - 3/1/18
Background check green, print pending - 3/2/18
Mailed - 3/7/18

I’m also in my very early 20s, only lived in Texas, and have never even received as much as a speeding ticket.

Only 4 days after everything was submitted, and it’s print pending :coolgleamA:

I’d rather be judged by 12, than carried by 6.

02/09 - All Green Checks / Mailed Status - What does this mean? Where would I see this?

Also, for the person who posted "confirmation received"....how were you notified?

Class 2/24
Prints 2/26
Confirmed receipt (i called) of all required docs 2/28

What is strange, is that when I go there....it previously said "Application Status: Submitted". Now it doesn't say that, and there is no additional information added. FWIW, I called this morning and they told me they had received all of the necessary information......strange.

It takes couple days(2-5 days) for it to update, once it does it will have all checks of stuff received. Just keep checking everyday!

Thanks....I will be one less caller tomorrow. I am sure they get tired of people bothering them for a status check!

From what I have read here it can seem almost random sometimes :/

Have you ever lived out of state? That is a factor.

Still nothing on their website......no status update. Anyone else have to wait this long, just to see status on their website? I called again and the lady told me that she saw my TLC-100 in the file but not part of the application??? She was sending something to the processing team. No clue what that means.
