Mine was mailed 6 days ago and it did not come in today. Time was running 2-3 days before this last big batch of completions. I suspect they are not mailing them on the date they stated.

All I have to say, do not believe or count on what they say until you see it. Mine was supposedly mailed on last saturday aug 29th. Well it is thursday sept 3rd and still a no go!!! Heck I have ridden my bicycle from Houston to Austin and it did not take two days for me to do it. But send mail from the chl department in Austin to Houston, who knows??? It is ok that you already had to wait double the time so why not wait more. Maybe they think I wll quit calling and writing !!!! Who knows. :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

App completed this morning, 84th business day, 117th calendar day. But who's counting? :mrgreen:

I was so happy this morning that I posted I'd be doing the Wally Walk this PM, forgetting I didn't yet have the plastic. :smilelol5:

Yeah, I'm amazed, DPS received my application on July 3, and I decided to check today, and it's completed!
