Awesome man! That's pretty great considering you even had a delay. If my circumstance is any indication, you'll have your plastic this week.

No kidding. I guess my request to get the license before Christmas might be fulfilled.

Ack! Rough patch!

Received notification that my application was incomplete. They need a Birth Certificate for proof of citizenship. Ya see boy, since you weren't born in 'Merica you may not be a 'Merican! Oh well, will fire off that bad boy with a copy of my passport for good measure.

Next time i will try not to be born in Saudi Arabia =)

Wahed, That kind of sucks. I'm guessing your application will finish and be complete around New Years, if we go by my timeline,. Especially with the holidays next week and then New Years the week after. Hopefully sooner though.

Since you wern't born in America, maybe you ought to run for President. "rlol"

Scuse me. You are willing to prove your citizenship. You could not get elected. :banghead:

Well finally got my pin today in the mail. Only took 3 weeks. At least it feels like the process is moving.

It looks like you and I took the class and mailed the packets on the same days. My pin came a day later than yours, now let see if our licenses come in at the same time. Are you in Harris county by chance?

Online it still shows my status as "Processing Application", but I got the big envelope in the mail today with new fingerprint cards. So I'll be going to get them re-done Monday. Looking at other folks progress this shouldn't cause too much of a delay except that I'll be sending the cards in right during the Christmas holiday break.
