Re: July '08 Applications
Called DPS yesterday and spoke with Simone. Second set of prints; taken at a FAST location, were rejected again by the FBI.
Does anyone know the reason DPS is not using electronic fingerprint submission? According to the contract with FAST, that was one of the
reasons for using their service.

Re: July '08 Applications
I just called FAST to set appointment for third set of prints. The lady said after you have bee rejected twice you are not required to have to
do it again.
Looked it up on the FBI website and she is right.
do it again.

Re: July '08 Applications
Talked to the same woman at DPS and she said they are still just waiting on the FBI. So is no news truly good news? Not sure when it comes to the state. Big ups for having found that nugget of information though.... seems like it should be in a sticky in the appropriate section of the site. Sorry to hear about the rejection though...at least I can empathize with the frustration that ensues after such news.jee wrote:I just called FAST to set appointment for third set of prints.

Re: July '08 Applications
Just for the heck of it, I sent an e-mail late last night to see if I could get a better status than 'processing application'. I got a very quick reply this morning but it was just a useless 'Processing means we are processing it'.

Too bad about that response. Guess I won't bother emailing.

Re: July '08 Applications
ON Tuesday of this week I was told that my second set of finger prints were rejected by the FBI.
Today, I called to find out why I have not received new cards and rejection notice/.
I am told that my prints were not rejected but they had looked at the wrong info..
THE PEOPLE AT DPS/CHLS HAVE NO CLUE AS TO WHAT THEY ARE DOING.
After a 1,000.00 investment into this program, I am really getting irritated.

Re: July '08 Applications
There hasn't been much activity in the July thread for awhile now.
