Long Wait
I submitted my all of my paperwork 12/27/13 and still have not received my license. The status update has been saying Waiting on Background check for 4 months. Has anyone else had a wait time like this??

Re: Long Wait
Welcome to the forum. I would call them (DPS) and see what the issue is. You should have received a letter in the mail by now explaining what the issue is. If they don't satisfy you on the phone I would contact my State Rep. You are well past due.slomo wrote:I submitted my all of my paperwork 12/27/13 and still have not received my license.

Re: Long Wait
Thank you for the welcome and advice I am waiting on a callback to see what the deal is. I'm kind of wondering if it has to do with me and my brothers ss# are only 1 number different and our names are one letter different. (Justin,Austin)
Re: Long Wait
Just got a call back and they said it should have been done a good while ago, and I should either receive my license in the mail or a letter telling me what the problem is in the next 2 weeks. I guess I have waited 7 months already, whats another 2 weeks

Re: Long Wait
Glad to hear you got some encouraging news. If it was me I would give them a chance to make it right but stay after them. The squeaky wheel does get the oil. I wouldn't be rude but firm. If they get to a point where it stalls feel free to contact your Senator or State Representative. That seems to move them .slomo wrote:Just got a call back and they said it should have been done a good while ago, and I should either receive my license in the mail or a letter telling me what the problem is in the next 2 weeks.

Re: Long Wait
Talked with my State Rep Office today and they said that they would call and they said, " A phone call from us and it will be shaken loose!" Said that the DPS has out sourced the chl process to a third party contractor and that they were not happy with the service they were receiving.
