I called today to inquire (once again) since I am at the 60 day mark and the lady told me that the average wait time is about 75 days.. what the heck?

Maybe if we weren't calling and emailing all the time those ladies could get to work :lol:

DH is still waiting on criminal check back from the county, over 107 days now. As soon as it arrives it will be issued. Mine was 93 days and apparently the same hold-up. Anyother Lubbock County people have this kind of delay?

Sent my packet 3/23, had one photo sent back needing signed. I received my plastic in the mail yesterday. 107 days Dallas County. Hopefully that is good news for some of you, at least there is some hope.
