Hivemind,
Does anyone know or have a link to show what is the maximum time between taking the CHL class and submitting the application? Due to some unforseen circumstances my wife has not been able to submit her app to DPS. She took her class back on the first week of January. Help please.... Thanks, |

TITLE 37PUBLIC SAFETY AND CORRECTIONS PART 1TEXAS DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SAFETY CHAPTER 6LICENSE TO CARRY HANDGUNS SUBCHAPTER BELIGIBILITY AND APPLICATION PROCEDURES RULE §6.12Basic Information to be Submitted with Application In addition to the information required by the Act, an application must contain all the following items: (1) Proficiency certificate. The applicant must submit a handgun proficiency certificate (TR 100) issued upon successful completion of a handgun proficiency course approved by the department and taught by a certified handgun instructor. A proficiency certificate submitted by an original applicant will not be accepted by the department if it is more than two years old. A proficiency certificate submitted by a renewal applicant will not be accepted by the department if it is more than six months old. I have "heard" that if you paid online then they will only accept your application ONE year after you pay, but I have yet to see a provision for that in the law, or an exception to the two year requirement in the above section. |

Really?
I am thinking that the holidays will delay the processing time a bit. It is the government after all. Quoted:
You have 2 years to turn it in. I submitted mine, new app on 10/06/09 , online shows processing application. I hope to have it by end of this month November or early December. |

I just went and looked at the DPS meeting minutes for september and it looks like they are planning on putting the entire CHL application process online in 2010, including fingerprints somehow. Should be interesting to see how that affects their current lag time. |

Are you referring to the Public Safety Commission?

Quoted: Are you referring to the Public Safety Commission? Can you link that? I'd like to see it. Sure, here you go. They are really slow in putting up the transcripts, but the minutes and audio get updated fairly quickly. ETA: The august transcript contains a bunch of info on the backlog and calls out Harris County for sitting on 8,000 applications which then got dumped back to DPS all at once. |
