So, apparently I contacted the right people because I just got a phone call to tell me that my license has been approved and has been sent to the printers. It will be here in 1 to 2 weeks once they get it back from the printer! :clapping: :clapping: :clapping: :clapping: :clapping: :clapping: :clapping: :clapping: :clapping: :clapping: :clapping: :clapping: :clapping: :cheers2:

Ok, so I just checked the status this morning and it still says it is "Processing Application" which means it still has not returned from the printers yet. Does anyone else know how long it took their license while it was at the printer?

There's no real way to know for sure . It is believed that DPS prints licenses in batches .
All I can say is to keep watching the website for the "approved" message.
That means its finished printing and waiting to be mailed out .

Good Luck ! ;-)
