Thanks, Keith - sure wish https://www.txdps.state.tx.us/internetf ... CHL-16.pdf" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; was kept up to date, but I don't think I want to complain too much.

I am no expert, but I think it's six month for a resident's license. From 411.172:

(1) is a legal resident of this state for the six-month period preceding the date
of application under this subchapter or is otherwise eligible for a license under
Section 411.173(a);

There are also non-resident licenses, which you might be able to get right away.

Good luck, and be safe.
