Renewal: 10 days

#1

Post by Beiruty »

Feb 6 easy-peasy online application done. Nothing requested
Feb 16 new card in hands, old one shredded.

10 days less than 2 working weeks.

Congrats! You received faster service than I have--I am still waiting.

On-line application submitted for renewal: Jan. 31, 2018.

Only "check-list" items required are the fingerprints and photo which the DPS said they would take care of unless I heard back from them. Have not heard back from them.
Please know and follow the rules of firearms safety.

Received renewal today 2/20/18 so...If I start counting the day After Jan. 31st up through today that was a waiting period of 20 days if my arithmetic is correct. Not bad at all! :clapping:

I hope my goes that smooth. I got my renewal notice today. I think I will wait till next week to start the process.
I will post and we can see how long the process takes. I think the shortest time was about 3 weeks I have been lic
since 1996. I have had a Drivers lic since 1955 so I don't know what they would not know.

Just to let everyone see I filled for renewal March 1 and on March 16 last bar said print pending.Maybe near the end of next week I will have lic in hand.
If they print in batches it could take several more days.

It does not matter because Lic is good till 8/21/18
