I don't believe so and hope not, because I sent a new set of pictures in this afternoon.
They removed the requirement that photos have to be signed.
Just sent a couple of new pics in from Office Depot-hope it works.

I did a return receipt, so I know they got my stuff on the 20th. Website still shows waiting on materials :/ It'll be nice to have someone to compare to.

You do the application online or in print?

I did the application online as well. I did not do the return reciept though. Wish I would've done that now. What part of town did you take the class? The class I attended was at the VFW Hall off of 290. We'll absolutely have to compare progress.

Sportsman's Outlet in Humble. I would only start worrying about return receipt if mine goes into the computers and yours hasn't for several days.

Got it today!!!!
Cool.....
Now I gotta get me a holster...

This forum is awesome... tons of good info...
Thanks
Bill

I got my SuperTuck yesterday. At least I can walk around at home and get used to it before the CHL comes in.

MAILED AS OF OCT. 30TH!!!!

Found this forum today while surfing the net and then discovered the fact that you can check your application status online, got to love modern technology. I took the CHL class in Fort Worth (On-target, taught by Todd) on Oct 6th, mailed my application on the 8th with a receipt confirmation of the 9th, and checked my status today (Nov 2nd) to find everything completed (checked in green ) and the license status as "manufacturing," ought to be getting my plastic pretty soon. I carried in Virginia for over 7 years before moving to Texas so it'll be good to be legal to carry here as a resident.

I carry a Springield XD40 in a Galco OWB holster (rides high and canted forward) with two spare magazines in a Galco holder as well as a Baretta Jetfire in my pocket when I'm in street clothes. Both conceal easily with a loose t-shirt and even more so in a leather vest or jacket; never had anyone say they could tell I was carrying a weapon. If I'm in running or biking shorts I carry in a camelback, nothing beats hydration and protection in one pack!

I didn't come in today I guess it will be waiting for me when I return from hunting.

10/16 - CHL Class
10/19 - Mailed Packet
10/21 - Packet Received - Certified Mail

Hey IYAOYSAS,
Where did you do the CHL class?
