I wonder if they'll also change it to be a secured website since we are putting our personal information (SSN, DL#, etc.) into the ehter.mmw68 wrote:I spoke to the DPS this morning, the web site was updated last night, and not all the code was loaded. The field where you type in you "Pin" is not there, and the IT department is update things. Check back in a day or two. -Mark

Re: "Waiting Room"
Teamless, This is the quote directly from the DPS website:Teamless wrote:Hmmm..there have been a few posts on this forum saying the end of April, the FBI would be doing Census fingerprint checks and would cause maybe a 2 week backlog in CHL processing, but you are saying that Texas DPS is doing things for the Census as well, and will maybe push it to 2 months. Yuck!
This is going to be a long 2 months, and I am sure I will wear out my mouse as I click on the DPS website checking the status every day, multiple times
"TXDPS has been notified by the FBI that all Fingerprint based background checks will be temporarily suspended beginning April 28, 2010 - May 3, 2010. The FBI Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) will be working with the U.S. Census Bureau to process more than 484,000 Fingerprints for Census Bureau workers.
Beginning May 4, 2010, TXDPS and the FBI will resume processing applicant fingerprints. It is important to note that the backlog of processing the fingerprint based background checks could take an additional two weeks. All applications will processed as quickly as possible once the FBI service returns to normal.
We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your patience."
That looks like a week slip to me. I wouldn't stress over it too much. In fact, I'm choosing not to stress over it as I'm in the same boat. I'll wait until later in the week and give them an email to see how things are going with my application.
