Re: May 2009 Applications

Well, I got the dreaded "Application incomplete - missing information - detailed letter has been sent." message today when I checked my status — although I'm not sure how long it's been there as I've been exercising restraint in checking it compulsively.

I decided to call and see what the issue was specifically and apparently DPS doesn't like an address in my employment history. The kind representative would not indicate which address they felt was not "correct" :mad5 and there was no way I could give her the information over the phone :headscratch . I think this is rather ridiculous, but that's just me.

I'd bet they don't like the address to my current and third-former employer which is a public institution in Texas, which, to my knowledge at least, does not have a physical address other than the name of the university. So, when I get the letter from DPS I think I'll have to call them and figure out what would make it a valid address to them. :rules: *sigh* This probably puts me back two months. :grumble

Re: May 2009 Applications

Thirteen days in and DPS finally cashed my check. I wish I wasn't so diligent with counting the days… This is going to be torturous. I've already picked out the holster and belt I want, although I'm going to hold off on the belt for a while as I am trying to lose some weight. I'd hate to spend $90 on a belt that only fits for a few months.

Maybe I should call DPS and let them know my birthday is the 19th and they could expedite my application as a birthday present. Yeah, I thought you'd find that humorous.
