Your probably be getting a letter real soon. It was 39 days from the time I mailed my application to the date on the letter when they assigned me a pin. Then another 7 days until I received the letter last week. So I'd say you'll be getting you pin real soon. Then you'll be able to see "Processing Application" :drool:

I am on day 30 for my second renewal. The bad part is that my license expired earlier this week, so now I am without. I've had a CHL since 2000, and not having one now is no fun at all.

Does wait time have anything to do with what county you are in? Does it get processed due to what county your residence is in or what county you completed your training?...for me it is 2 different counties.
