I submitted all my documents as attachments on-line 7/9 and received my CHL on 7/23. I was prepared for a month-long wait so the quick turn around was a nice surprise.

Glad to join your ranks!

How long before you saw any change in your status? My wife submitted her documents as attachments on-line on July 16 and we are starting to wonder if we need to mail it in.

webodrex let me know when your CHL arrives and I will do likewise.

Mine CHL is a renewal. Was yours a renewal or new?

Mine is a new application I have a friend who I took the class with and shipped out the packet with who just got his today so it really depends on who is processing your application at the dps.

So I just quickly checked my status before going to work, not expecting any change this soon. Well, it FINALLY updated past the initial "application has been processed online/waiting for required materials" to the more detailed update screen and everything is received and the background check is under review. I started the application online on the 21st, mailed the 22nd, and fingerprints the 23rd. Hopefully I'll get lucky like a few others and the background check will only take a day and tomorrow it will say "manufacturing pending".

Can't wait! :hurry:

I wasn't checking too frequently, so I'm not sure. We left for 10 days of vacation and my CHL was waiting in the mailbox when we got back. Otherwise I would have been checking my status every day.
