When I applied for my CHL I had a MIP on my record. I just wrote down what happened in the space provided. I was never asked for any documentation and I never provided any. I got my CHL 45 days from mailbox to mailbox.

I stand by what I said. Whether or not if it is listed on the application (minor things in the past can be forgotten about) they're doing the check and as an agency they have the ways and means to verify any information that comes up. They should cut out the middle man and request the info from the arresting agency/court themselves. Instead the CHL is over priced and DPS wastes tax dollars by sending out letters and then having to reprocess the application. I'm sure they spend more time verifying the documents with the appropriate agency once they are sent in. In the letters they send out if they can list where the offense took place they can see what the disposition is.

What is it with all of these threads about DPS asking for more info? When I was living in Texas I received a MIP. A few years later I applied for my CHL and was never asked for more documentation. It took 45days from mailbox to mailbox via regular mail not certified.

The other thing is with them being a LEO agency you'd think they could get the info for themselves. For the overly high price of a CHL you'd think they could do some work and earn the money. They know so.ething popped up you would think they could take the next step.
