But since my photos were deemed too light to print they got the new photos May 28 and sent to Harris County on June 1. Last Monday I called and still in Harris County. Called this morning and out to the printer. Hoo boy. :anamatedbanana
Status change this morning. It's in the mail. :anamatedbanana :anamatedbanana Wally Walk by next weekend. Maybe.

I took the class on 26 July; mailed in the application on 01 August. Sitting out in Iraq right now, so not a critical hurry. You don't need a CHL to carry over here, and my weapons options are much more varied.

Gosh LIA, you're not even at the 90 day mark. I feel your pain, and I feel your wait is short. ;-) :thumbs2:

Subtract one from August. Mine arrived yesterday. Received by DPS on August 5. My wife, however, is still showing the dreaded "Processing Application". That's 42 days total for me. Wife is on Day 43 today.
