At least it's progressing... but don't do your happy dance yet. Mine stayed on PRINT PENDING for a week before it was all green. Hopefully within 10 days you will have some plastic in your wallet.

Right!! Who knows... The way they are processing, I might just end up going one step backwards!!!

Lets see how long it takes from Printer to Hand!

Sitting on day 109
Have you called them?
Emailed 3 times since June (no response)
Called 2 times this month and they say it's still sitting in "eligibility" but they haven't sent me any request for supporting documentation of any sort.

I'm hoping I see all green in the next few days but I'm done holding my breath at this point. I know that one of these days it will be worth the wait.

What has everyone done to help expedite the process if anything? I want to write my Rep. Anyone that is for/ or against that?

What would you do?

Well I've had pretty good success getting a hold of them via telephone and email. They will put you on hold to check the progress of your application if you email them through the website they will respond to you. At least they did for me. Just got a quick response.....

Applied for renewal online: 4/10/16

These status items are yellow
Fingerprints : Under review

All other status items are green.

The previous renewal went much more quickly despite having to mail in all the required materials as was the requirement back then. Current wait time is 3 months and counting.
Update
Reached out to RSD via email. Received an encouraging response 9 days ago. Still no plastic. 103 days and counting.
Update
Still no plastic. 116 days and counting.

Update
Welp. 130 days and counting, still no plastic. This is getting kinda crazy. Have held a Texas carry license for the past 10 years. Nothing has changed, not even a parking ticket. Reached out to RSD for a second time 14 days ago, they have yet to respond. My gosh, this is a second time around renewal application, they surely have adequate documentation from their previous approvals to move forward. This exaggerated delay is inexplicable.

Got plastic today. 2 weeks and 2 days is all it took my wife and I from online app to plastic in hand. Good luck to all of those still waiting. Feels good to legally carry.

Call your local State Rep! if they havent requested any more documents from you (which in they have an additional 180 days to review) then they are technically breaking a law. If everything checks out im sure theyll have it out to you soon! hope this helps!

Thanks for the advise. Have resisted going over their heads thus far, instead opting to let the system work but this waiting game is starting to get old. They have not requested any additional documents or information and have not replied to my last request for information. Will seriously consider contacting my State Rep sometime next week if nothing changes.
