This has probabaly been asked before but can the CHL packets be pick up from any avaliable DPS office? I was going to do the online registration but my class is on the 9th and I want to be sure I have a packet by the time I go. Any advice would be helpful.

Thanks for all the replies. One more question. If I leave a section of the online app blank. Can I fill that part in when I have it in hand. I only ask casue I nned to get it here in time but I dont have the specific dates for a certain part of it.

If it's date information pertaining to residency or employment, you'll be OK with just month and years. I had a heck of a time trying to remember specific employment and residency dates and just gave up and did month and year. No worries.

Anything beyond that...I dunno.

It the dates for a conviction that was 15 years ago. I dont think its going to hinder me getting one but I still want to placeit just so it doesnt look like I'm trying to hide anything.

You can fill in any part of the self report by hand. Supporting documentation is a plus too so they won't have to look it up. I believe I recall DPS stating any self report will put your app. into investigations which can delay the process. There's a limit to the time frame they want reported. If it's not within the past XX years, I wouldn't bother putting it on there. I had a self report for a *ahem* infraction...and it was 20yrs ago. I mentioned EVERYTHING and it was delayed. I quick fax of my security clearance paperwork from the USAF and my CHL was on the way but it was still delayed and took me 90+ days. That's a long time to wait when you're impatient.
