Yeah I saw that - different county maybe? I live in Travis and have heard from my CHL instructor 90 days is average.
Of course, both the wife and I forgot to put dates on the test and proficiency section - so that probably added a few weeks.

Re: How long did it take to get CHL, mailing packet to plast
Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum and just received my plastic last week 
I'd say it took about 64 days end-to-end, and that includes having to resend a document that was missing a date. My wife sent hers in a little later, and is still pending.
A note to those who haven't sent in your documents- check every field on every form to make sure you have all info down, and do not mail the document! Scan it to PDF and upload it to the sites 'contact us' page. If you don't have a scanner or multi-function printer at work or home you can probably find one at a UPS store or Kinko's.
Use email and the contact us page to (politely) nudge things along is you feel things are going too slow. I truly mean politely- these folks are overwhelmed with applications and that isn't going to slow down soon. Letting them know that I appreciated how busy they were and just wanted to check to see if I provided the right info helped move things along.
Certified mail is more costly, slow, and unreliable than email.
Nice to meet y'all!
