Welcome to you both. It's good to here about the both of you making the decision to carry. My wife, 4 daughters and 1 son all carry.

Use this time to practice bth shooting and carry around your house. Get used to your method of carry so you will feel more comfotable when it does arrive.

Won't be long now. Processing took about two weeks for me.

Congratulations!

:cheers2: :party:

BTW, I didn't sign my online application page and it only cost me about a 10 day delay.

I'll bet your wife will get hers any day now.

Alright -- after returning all of her unsigned paperwork about 2 weeks ago, and me carrying religiously for the past month, my wife's CHL was approved yesterday. She ought to have her plastic Monday or Tuesday.

I'm glad it didn't delay her for very long. I wish we could do more to promote the CHL Checklist to help people avoid the more common mistakes. Unfortunately, I think most people find TexasCHLforum after they have their CHL, or they have sent in the application.

Congratulations on becoming a 2 CHL family.
Chas.
