One thing, among many that I noticed while waiting from others posts is that there appears, at least sometimes, that there is no rhyme or reason as to why one person gets their plastic quick and another has to wait longer. Believe me I searched and tried to find a common denominator but I couldn't find any.

During the waiting I do feel there are two things that are important: 1. That they got "all" of your required documents (Note: It doesn't really appear there is any real difference time wise between email and regular mail) and 2. When your mailbox is empty, regardless of your disappointment, remember, you don't want to receive mail from DPS without plastic!

I've had mine for about 10 days now. It (carrying) is becoming more and more routine as the days pass. This weekend I look forward to going to the range because I want to practice and will continue to do so. I may have the authority to carry, but in the event I have to use it, I want to be as skilled as I can!

Just me saying! Congrats to all the new recipients!

Doesn't it feel good to not have to check anything anymore regarding your status or other people's timelines? LOL

Not sure what this is worth, if anything. Earlier this summer folks were getting them in two weeks. August to early September that grew to 3-4 weeks. I received mine exactly 4 weeks from the date of the confirmation email received. Also, I was told on a Wednesday that mine was approved and sent to print and I received it in my mailbox the following Monday.
