Im fresh into the process so here goes my timeline thus far.

3/6/16- class completed
3/16/16-application and documents submitted and accepted
3/21/16- fingerprints

And now to start pacing like Cartman waiting for the Wii.

The long wait....worst part of it all. I have been saving up and have my eye on the Beretta Px4.. :totap:

Final numbers:

Class 1/30/2016
Fingerprints 2/8/2016
All in 2/8/2016
Confirmation email 2/10/2016
Website change 3/21/2016
Plastic in hand 3/22/2016

As of today out of the four of us who took the class together and all have identical dates on everything, 3 of us have plastic in hand, the 4th has no change.

Looks like they are getting the process lined back out, pretty much got most of us done in the six weeks they are claiming.

I was "All in" 1/21/2016.....I've been patiently waiting but this is starting to get discouraging after seeing others be approved with all in dates a few weeks after mine....DPS needs to come up with better operations or something...Not to mention I've been calling the DPS phone number from the DPS website and it seems they just closed their phones lines and provided a generic voice message then hangs up.

When I spoke with my Rep's office yesterday, they said that they have gone from 15k applications per month prior to San Bernardino, to 50k applications per month after. I suspect that the news of Brussels today will only increase the number of applications.

Interesting! I had figured open carry would be a (or the) driver. I'd let my license lapse when they began allowing concealed handguns in vehicles, but decided to apply again with open carry finally legalized...

Long time follower of the page but this is my first post.

Here's my timeline:
Class- 1/04/2016
CHL-100- 1/05/2016
Fingerprints- 1/07/2016
Confirmation- 1/07/2016
Status Change- TBA
Plastic- TBA

Still no status change... I just got off the phone with Victor, he said everything looked good then went and talked to his supervisors for me to get a more "detailed" timeline. He came back with "It's on the last stage and you should have it by the end of March or beginning of April. My roomate and dad who took the class with me and submitted 3 weeks after me already have plastic in hand.

C'mon plastic!! Wally world is calling my name!

No doubt...you "old-timers" are getting hosed, but at least it looks like they are trying to get things lined out going forward.
