Re: March 2009 Applications

Retain hope all ye who enter here!

Applications Complete - Licenses Approved!! (both me and my wife) :woohoo

Only 119 days since applications were received on 25 March. Investigation was probably through Galveston county.

Now we wait for the plastic.

They secretary first gave me the spew about Hurricane Ike and the Presidential Election, then patch me thru to another lady, only for me to leave a message on her machine. I am a March applicant, but several April applicants are jumping in line and getting there's first, because of their Senator's/Reps. Plus, I am a law enforcement officer, why aren't I in the head of the line. :mad5
I had the same problem with DPS Switchboard, so sent them an e-mail. Two weeks later, all I got was a "Background Investigation in process - no estimate for completion." And, from what I can tell, having my Representative's office (Rep. Larry Taylor) call hasn't changed anything. :banghead:

Re: March 2009 Applications

Just to add to the growing list:

CHL Class: Feb
Mailed Packet: 5 March
Received confirmation: 25 March
Contacted DPS: 12 June - told the background investigation was still in process
Contacted state representative: 26 June (91 days)
Representative's Office contacted DPS: 29 June
(Replied to us it would be expidited)

As of 4 July ... no change. My wife applied the same day - with the same result.

Has anyone tried asking DPS for a formal, post-90 day denial letter with the intent of demanding a hearing?
