Anyone else waiting with me? Seems that early to mid-November folks are getting theirs now....

Same here, sent mine certified Mail. They signed and received it Nov 12th and still no update online. I called there last week and was told they have all my paperwork but that they are very behind and that I can expect to wait till the end of March before I get it in the mail. Oh well, could be worse lol

Heck, when I called last week, they could even confirm that they GOT my peperwork. They said it wasn't possible to know, because I submitted online.

I've called them two times over the last month or so and I can never get a straight answer to a straight question: "Can you confirm that the paperwork I submitted online is showing as received?"

Rep could not say for sure.

Application, fingerprints, and tests submitted 11/13/13 via email.

First update 1/20/14. Showed manufacturing.
Second update 1/22/14. Showed mailed.
Received plastic 1/24/14. (I'm in Austin so short trip for the mailman through the ice today. State offices were closed here in Austin, so it might slow the rest of y'all down by just one more day.)

Thanks gentlemen. I'll be waiting for you at Walmart. Won't be long for you....

It gave me hope that I would actually get some kind of update soon. And low and behold it happened. I thought it would only be fitting for me to post my status so that maybe it will give someone else hope that the waiting will eventually end.

Online application 11/17/13
Fingerprints 11/22/13
CHL class 11/23/13
Online submission of documents 11/24/13
The submission of documents was on a Sunday and for some reason I didn't feel good about it. On Monday 11/25/13 I call and after holding for about 30 minutes I talked to a lady that was very helpful. They did not have the forms that I email the day before, so while she had me on the line she had me resubmit my documents and she verified that my documents came through on their email system.

That said today 1/21/14 I received an update

Everything was good and no more documents required

Background Check : Under review
Concealed Handgun License : Print pending completion of application review

So for those of you still waiting there is hope
Good Luck!!!

Update today 1/22/14

Background Check : Completed
Concealed Handgun License : Manufacturing Pending

I didn't expect to see any change today, but checking my status daily has turned into my regular routine. And one day later the background check was complete.

Update 1/23/14

Background Check : Completed
Concealed Handgun License : Mailed

So it is finally in the mail.
I must say I am really surprised I didn't expect everything to happen as fast as it did after I received the first update. When it arrives in the mail I will post again to let y'all know how long that takes.
