Sorry, that isn't correct, but this is interesting:

I sent in CHL packet on 3/22 - that status still hasn't been updated.
I sent in CHL instructors packet on 3/27 - this status was updated to BG already.

And today's email...
The email we received on 3/14/2013 did not have any documents attached. You can attach them to this email and send them to me.
I do know how to attach files and upload on a web site... They were definitely sent. Looks like they lost mine.


I replied to the email and attached the scanned documents. I received an email 30 minutes later saying they had been received and forwarded to the processing department.

Did you not see here on the forums that early march folks are just now seeing changes in status?? You're mid march so what's the hurry? Why waste the good folks time at the DPS for answers you should have already known???
You are welcome to do as you please. I did not waste anyone's time by calling to ask if their backlog had increased more than what they had been dealing with a month ago when it was taking 4-5 weeks to get a status update.

I have a quick question. Sent all my documentation in on March 15th. Online appliation complete awaiting documentation. I cannot remember the following but you are able to pay online when you submit your online application, correct? I see people on here saying their checks have cleared! Seems like I paid online! Like I said it has been awhile! :confused5

Hi guys,

Another March Applicant. Actually filled out the application on-line in December, did the classroom & Prints on February 22 and Range on March 25. Mailed the packet in on March 26. I know it is early, so I am sitting and waiting, and waiting...
Judging from the other posts, I am a couple weeks out from seeing a status change. Seems to be about 6 - 7 weeks from date it was mailed.

Was there a personal attack that I missed? Haven't been in since fri or sat. I do see that my last post was deleted but it wasn't a personal attack so just wondering.

BTW still waiting on status change. Mailed mar 8th. I see that some more march apps have been processed. Awesome!

I would say Target but you might be inclined to aim at the target while entering Target. :fire :nono:
