Well, I've suffered another "Sometimer's Moment." I could have sworn I posted this last Friday but . . . oh well, I'll forget about making this mistake . . . in a few minutes.
1. I have confirmed with DPS that Instructors should keep only a copy of the CHL-100 we give to our students. This is proof of successfully passing (or not) both the classroom and range portion of the classes.
2. Some students are uploading documents that have been scanned poorly, i.e. poor resolution, incomplete as in cut-off, etc, or to a non-compatible format. This can result in DPS not having a complete application. DPS has not prohibited students uploading documents, but until/unless this problem is resolved, I am strongly recommending my students mail their documents to DPS. In all candor, it sounds like a problem on the student end, so I don't see how DPS can resolve the issue. (We have this problem at PSC with Members uploading illegible documents.)
3. Instructors can still take photos for students, or the student can use the photo on their Texas Driver's License. If using the TDL photo, write that on the photoholder (CHL-6).
