WOOHOO! I got my plastic today! Been a long time coming.
See all y'all on the flipside!!

I honestly believe that the squeaky wheel gets the grease. As soon as I hit my 60 day mark I was contacting them. Any time before that is pointless.

Don't give up hope. Just do other things with your time like carry indoors for practice, go to the range, practice concealing with different clothes. Before you know it you will have it!

Bump, bump, bump!
Spoke to MaryAnne again this afternoon because I havent received my license! She told me that she personally put into the outgoing mail pile and I should be seeing it next week. I hope she is really telling the truth. She told me I would be seeing it in a few days last week! Any other updates for people waiting this month?

Juat got a call from Maryanne at the DPS. She said my CHL has been approved and to wait 7-10 days for the card to be delivered. Woohoo! I really hope she is not blowing smoke. I guess my prediction was pretty spot on! Well that's only if they do deliver it, right?

Im still here. I spoke to the DPS last week and the lady informed me that all applicants who are on their last step of their approval have to be enterd into a general query and that is done on Tuesdays. If everything is good to go they issue the licenses on Thursday. Does anyone know about this? She said I was ready to go into the query and to call them early next week for a status.

I called the number that was given to me by BigHays. Thank you. Ieft a voicemail and the lady returned my call later in the afternoon. She told me that all my background checks were back and that she was waiting to enter my information into a general query. What is this general query and how come I have never heard of it? She also said that she inputs information once a week and that is every Tuesday and on Thursdays the licenses are issued. Does anyone know what she is talking about with this general query? I am glad that at least all of my info is in and they are in the final steps. Any word from the other people here in the June thread?

I waited until just recently to call. If you call too early you will definitely start to get frustrated. I believe that the DPS is starting to get their ducks in a row. Don't quote me on that. Heh.

Did you call DPS? I called and she said I wasnt in the system and then she said, "oh, wait. It looks like we started processing your app this week. Call in two weeks and we should definitely give you some type of status. If you don't hear from us it's good news."

Called DPS just to get an update and see if my app. had even been entered into the sytem. The lady told me that thEY have it being received as of June 27th and that it has begun the process as of this week. She said to give them about 45-60 days from this week. Wow! That will Put me pretty close to my prediction. Anybody else checked their status that is pretty close to my timeline? Let's hear the updates! Grammy?

Well according to my calculations I should be at 60 days on August the 23rd. I will be giving them a call later this coming week to check on the status. Hopefully at least get a status on my PIN.

welcome grammy! look at my prediction in my sig. looks like we will be in for a good one. we will be able to conceal a little bit better since the cold weather will begin around the time we get our licenses!

Hey JL! We are pretty much on the same timeline save for a few days. let's hope this wait is a short one.

I am also curious as to how everyone who applied in June is progressing. Post up if there are any developments. I will make sure to update mine as information becomes available. Good luck everyone!
