As of today @ 4 weeks and no change in status. I emailed CHL customer service to only see if they need me to resend anything.

Wait for it...

I'll add my new CHL timeline stats to the bunch. This is great information.

01/06/2013 Completed online application.
01/06/2013 Scheduled FAST fingerprint appointment (also paid in advance)
01/28/2013 FAST Fingerprints appointment
01/31/2013 completed 1 hour CHL shooting qualification
02/02/2013 completed 10.5 hours class time & written test
02/05/2013 mailed packet (certified return receipt)
02/07/2013 TX DPS received packet
02/09/2013 I received the signed USPS return receipt for proof of delivery.
03/04/2013 no change in online status - emailed CHL customer service

You mailed yours right around when I did. My status changed Sunday, and I don't think you're too far behind me. Just be patient and see if it changes by EOW

The most dreaded phrase...told ya so

Congrats on the change! Don't expect to stop checking it less though haha

[mlsa]

And I thought waiting for them to post showing they had received my application was nerve racking. I think they are like trains....they know when they block a drive with only one car that they are really really ticking you off. they know I look at this site many times a day and they just won't change my status.

4th week in background check review....awwwwwwwwwwwwww

The wait is almost over...Moved to Mailed today.

Does anyone know how often they update their website? And if only once do you know if it's updated at night?

If only once a day and at night no sense in me checking it 4,203,123 times a day.

I have not been able to figure it out either. Today my changed from manufacturing to mailed between 5:30 am when I first checked it and 7:15 am.
My last change was between Saturday night 10:30 and Sunday morning at 10:00 am. I too was obsessed with checking it.

I feel so close yet so far. I sent all my paper work in on 1/28/13 and have been in BG review since 2/20/13 noticing that guys that sent there paper work in 4 days before me are getting there's this week gives me hope to see a change on my status next week.
