Re: "Waiting Room"

Well gentlemen, after a long wait for a license, receiving one with some other guys photo on it, and requesting a new one, my seat here in the waiting room is officially available. Checked the mail a minute ago and it was there! Time for the traditional wally walk! Can't wait!

I checked it this morning and I now have a new status change! Hopefully my license will be here soon!
How long after it changed the first time did it take to recieve it in the mail

I think it was about 6 days for me. When I called to get it re-issued, they said that they sent it out on 4/15 but I didn't receive it till the 21st. You wouldn't think that it would take that long to ship from Austin to Amarillo.

Re: "Waiting Room"

I am for a lack of a better word "irritated"! My license was mailed out on the 15th and just now arrived. That is not why I am irritated. I am irritated because after that awful wait and all the anticipation, my license arrived with my correct height, weight, address, DL number, hair color and eye color but HAS SOMEONE ELSE'S PHOTO AND SIGNATURE ON IT!! They use your driver's license photo! If my drivers license number is correct on my carry license, then how did that happen!?! Im Caucasian, red hair, blue eyes and 30yrs old. The guy on my license is 40-45yrs old and Hispanic! Now I have to wait for a re-issue and snail mail all over again!

I thought that surely this was a mistake so I called back last week. I got the same guy on the phone again and he told me that there was no change. Not happy with this answer, I decided to call one more time. I called at about 1pm yesterday and got someone nee on the phone. I told her that i wanted to check to see if they needed additional documents and to get a status update. She said i was approved and that I was being sent to print! She gave me a time window of 7-14 business days until I receive my license! Hope this is true! Checked the website a few minutes ago and no change yet. Hope this means that they are getting caught up!

I checked the website this morning and i have a status change! I checked at about midnight and nothing, so they are working weekends! Lol! Cant wait for my wally walk!

He said they had not even touched my application but he did confirm that he had received all of my fingerprints, document, etc. He then let me know that "It could take 2-3 more months just to get my paperwork pushed through the system, and that once it had, they would need to complete a background check. The background check could possible take 60-90 days to complete." I've waited a month and a half ( which I am fine with) and am being told that it could take another 6 months? That would be a 7 1/2 month wait time for my ltc in total. I really hope that he is mistaken. I know a lot of you guys had to wait quite a while but they were getting them through in the 60-80 day range. I hope that this is not what is to come for us post 2015 applicants.
I'd better see an April Fools on your next post. :grumble
Unfortunately not. I got off of the phone with them 10 minutes before I posted. 2-3 months for paperwork to be put in the the system and same for background check is what I was told. I have a squeeky clean background and I didn't stagger my paperwork. Everything was sent to them in a 3 day window. I really hope that guy was just full of crap.
