And Still Waiting.....

[Longhornfan69]

So my inability to be patient just got the best of me. I called the DPS & the lady pulled up my drivers license number. She did verify that the background check was started on 02/15 & said it takes 60 days for first time applicants. I asked if there was a problem & she told me again it would be 60 days. So I guess I'm stuck in waiting mode for another month & a half.

I can't see why it would take 60 days, I had my plastic 25 days after they received my packet.

I don't understand either. Just checked the website & today is day 21 on BG review. This is really getting frustrating

I think the SOP is for them to state 60 days! but usually it gets done within 60 days. 60 days seems like forever.

I have been waiting about 6 weeks since it was sent in, not looking forward to potentially another -6 weeks...

From what I've been seeing on this forum, the vast majority of people are getting their CHL in hand, well before 60 days. Mine is showing 'Mailed' and I expect to have it by Friday. That would make it <45 days mailbox to mailbox.

As of yesterday the DPS has had all my information for 31 days & the BG review has been going on for 21 days so hopefully it will be over soon.

Finally....my status changed this morning to manufacturing pending!!! WooHoo...maybe it will be here soon.

NotreDameFan -

I mailed my remaining documents on February 6th and my CHL status, "Manufacturing Pending" on March 2nd to mailed on March 7th. I am now waiting on USPS. You are very close to the finish line.

I'm not sure why mine was taking so long because there is nothing to show on BG check. I'm just glad it finally updated!!
