Final followup. App received at DPS (1-26-13) to plastic in my pocket (3-14-13) . Wife's hasn't arrived yet; should be here in a day or two.

I wish I had a dollar for every time I've checked my status! It's crazy how fast some get pushed through and how slow others take.

I know it's tough, but plan on a month of it not moving, so don't check for a month (I lasted two weeks) when you go back things may have moved. Once it goes to manufacturing--that's when you start checking every 2 minutes

Good luck and don't torture yourself by checking too much

I think the month long delay in background was because I've only lived in TX for 6 months. Hopefully I'll receive my official plastic this next week!

In the home stretch

Should see 'mailed' sometime this weekend (keep in mind that means it will most likely be postmarked and actually mailed Tues or Weds of next week and you should be Wally Walking by Thurs for Friday

[Brad Mc]

I hear you paustin! I keep telling myself that I'm going to wait a week before I check again. I don't think I can do it. When I see other people getting plastic that submitted their packet after me, it gets frustrating. I really didn't think I'd be so anxious, but obviously I'm not the only one.

[RiderDean]

Yeah!!!!! Day 30 in "review"! I know you're all jealous. That means no chance of an update until Tuesday which will be 33 days in "review". Lucky me!!

Do you know for a fact there is a Sunday batch? I assumed there is not be because they don't work on Saturday.
