it sucks....it takes a while to get things changed online. I had a correction to make on mine and it didn't change back to processing application until three weeks after they received it. Hang in there

Sept. 30, 22 working days after mailing in renewal packet. Website still shows "Packet Mailed to Applicant". I sent them an email questioning my status and got a reply within an hour that said "your application may just not be entered into the system. It is likely going through the process required". Dang this is getting tiring and I haven't been here nearly as long as some. Good thing I don't expire till December.

Doesn't that just annoy the crap outa you? It takes all of 30 seconds to update the status. They know people are anxious to know their status, yet the just sit on their thumbs.

Sent the DPS an email last week just to see why I was still in "Packet Mailed to Applicant". Believe it or not today I have rolled to "Processing Application"

Maybe I'll get my renewal before I expire in Dec.

Congrats! Now you can officially start your time line if you want to. It's accessed via the User Control Panel, Profile tab, then Edit Signature. It's a good reminder on how loonnnggggggg you've been waiting(and waiting, and waiting).
I hope your wait is not long!
