8/31/14 Application...email confirmation received.
9/17/14 Fingerprints
3/29/15 CLH class and sent CHL-100 in via RSD...email confirmation received.
5/28/15 Emailed CHL-100 directly to a rep who said he would expedite my application
6/8/15 Status changed on website
6/10/15 Received plastic
I do have to say that I called several times between the 3/29/15 date and the 5/28/15 date and was told each time that "everything has been received" and that I should "just wait for the process" to run it's course. It wasn't until the last call I made when I finally realized I should have them TELL ME what they had, rather than insist I had sent everything in and was waiting. when the rep told me on 5/29 that they had my app and fingerprints, but no CHL-100 form, I was shocked, because each rep before had said that it was received. And now I know that was not true. Each of the times (6 or 7 total) I called before I was told they had everything.
I would strongly suggest that if you do call, to have them TELL YOU what forms they show to have, regardless of what ever confirmations may have been electronically sent. I received a confirmation that my last form was received, but it turns out it was not. It was frustrating for me, because I was waiting (assuming things were in process) and nothing was happening on their end.
To be fair, I am pleased with the time it took after they had the info, but they never once sent me snail mail, email or any other requests for further documentation.
Nine months and ten days later, I am now licensed and legal. It feels good, and I can't stop grinning
