Re: Need suggestion on how to proceed

Essentially I completed my online application and submitted my supporting materials by March 8th of this year and it is now almost 60 days later (the limit they say to wait up until being notified whether all materials submitted are correct or not) and I have not heard anything back.
Eagle, you're a "victim" of LTC "popularity". There has been a very large spike in applications, and DPS got behind the curve trying to process them all. The same phenomenon is being experienced in other gun-related processes, such as ATF processing of Form 1 and Form 4 applications for suppressors and SBRs. My son filed a Form 1 on 12/5/15, and it took 96 days to be approved. I filed a Form 1 exactly a month later on 1/5/16, and it took 114 days to process. Officially, ATF is stating a 5 month timeline.

All of this is the result of an increasingly hostile federal gov't response to the 2nd Amendment - causing all kinds of firearms-related licensing apps to skyrocket.
