Re: Apply before or after class?

My understanding is DPS starts your background check as soon as they get your fingerprints. If an applicant has budgeting or scheduling problems, I recommend he go ahead and apply before class. If he waits a month of so to take the class, it probably will not have much affect on how soon he gets his LTC. DPS will be through w/the background check and ready to issue.

If he plans on taking the class in the next week, the order is not as important. It should have much effect either, what's a couple of days? It will probably be 3 to 5 days before he can get printed.

Course, I have 'heard' that it may depend on whose desk your app lands on. If you examiner happens to go on vacation, sick, gets detailed out or quits, it can take awhile for your app to get reassigned. :(
