My status didn't start showing until 8 days after I had all requirements submitted.

1/9/18 - LTC class, form submitted online, fee paid, email received
1/10/18 - Fingerprints taken at IdentoGo
1/18/18 - Status begins showing at texas.gov with first 10 of 12 items green
1/23/18 - Item 11 (background check) green
1/26/18 - Item 12 (licensed mailed) green
1/29/18 - License in hand

Start to finish: 20 days

Even though it's a moot point now because of today's Senate vote, I'm wondering if a federal gov't shutdown would have delayed my LTC, specifically the background check portion?

I'm finally seeing status updates on the texas.gov website, 9 days after starting the process. It shows my background check "under review" with green checks on everything above that. Kind of defeats the point of having a status page if you don't show it until 10 of the 12 checkpoints are cleared. On the upside, I've now memorized my drivers license number.

Ok, thanks. It's odd that they showed a status line for 2 days and then removed it. I was hoping to get an acknowledgment that IdentoGo submitted my fingerprints.

I took and passed my LTC course 3 days ago on 1/9/2018, submitted a PDF of the form online that day, paid the fee, and made the fingerprint appointment at IdentoGo for the following day. That evening I received the "License to Carry - Documents Received" email. Clicking the https://txapps.texas.gov/txapp/txdps/chl/ link provided and logging in via my DL number and birthday it showed a page with "Status: Submitted" (or something very similar to that). The next day (1/10/2018) I had my fingerprints taken at IdentoGo.

So now when I go back to that same status page and login again, there is no Status line on that page anymore. What happened there? I see other people in this thread mention green check marks next to the various status points. Where exactly is this located?
