70+ day wait

#1

Post by sweatmachine »

My timeline:

CHL Class 12/20/15
Online app, document submission, and confirmation email: 12/21/15
Fingerprints 12/23/15

Website status change? Nope.
Plastic in hand? Not yet.

I'm 70 days in as of today and have yet to get any updates. I've called in 3 times and only get the same response each time: "We have your paperwork. Please be patient." I hate to whine but I'm getting pretty frustrated with this whole process.

I do have one non disqualifying arrest from 12 years ago (no convictions), but otherwise have a squeaky clean record.

Is there anyone else at 70+ days now?

:banghead: :smash: :mad5

I am also on day 70 and still nothing.
When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home." - Chief Tecumseh

Day 69 for me.... What makes me frustrated more than the wait itself is when I read of people who submitted well after me receiving their approval/license. The only thing on my record is a couple speeding tickets from 20 years ago. :banghead:

The TAC says 60 days but may take up to 180 days. I've been watching and reading and this might help. Grab a calender and from your confirms that everything's been received, count out 60 business days. I know it doesn't say business, just an observation on what I've observed on this board.
Texas is a shall issue state. If you are not disqualified, you shall receive

Best of luck
