HCP waiting time

[Ricochet]

And then one day

It took me 6 weeks and 1 day to jump for joy and kiss my mail box!

[Guest GT_Rat]

6 weeks for me as well.

[Guest REDDOG79]

At least you are five weeks into your wait I have one week down and quite a bit more to go

[BigDaddyx4]

I keep counting but I still keep coming up w/ only two weeks into my wait....

[Guest mace8924]

I sent my stuff in and did the finger printing 1 week ago to day. It would be nice if you could pay an additional say $20 to get it express service. I would pay $40 just to do it.

[Guest dwrd]

two weeks, 3 days in on my wait. I agree with being able to pay a little more for express service.

[Fallguy]

:rant:talk about goin' postal.

[Guest Phantom6]

Our students are averaging about 35 days.

[Guest TennMan]

I forgot to tell every one my hcp did get here, it took five weeks to the day.

My wife sent in her renewal in December 07' and is still waiting. She called to check on it and was told they were now doing background checks on renewals also, I thought if you did something bad enough to have your permit taken it would auotomaticly go into the system. Why would they have to redo background checks if you have already had a permit and reapplied in a timely manner?

So, I became anxious. I could wait no longer. I called. "Stephanie" was very friendly AND helpful on the phone. She told me it was issued Friday last, and the address it was being sent to.

I should have it in no time. WHOO HOO!

[Marswolf]

Well, congratulations!!!!!

[Guest atomemphis]

Now, it is time to stare the mailman down. Hopefully here tomorrow.

It took 6 days (counting Sunday, and believe me, I counted!!) from the day they said they issued mine until it arrived in my Memphis mailbox. YMMV.

[BigDaddyx4]

3 weeks and 2 days...starting to keep an eye out for the mailman now. Not really expecting it yet but I can always hope.

[Guest atomemphis]

WHOO HOOO! GOT MINE YESTERDAY

kind of a let down, i was hoping Ed McMahon would deliver it with one of those huge checks.

[Guest flyfishtn]

I called Thursday and it was issued that day and being sent for printing and mailing. So I will have mine very soon!

[BigDaddyx4]

Congrats guys!! Be safe out there.

[Guest dwrd]

I called on Thurday too, and was told the same thing as flyfishtn that it was being issued that day, and it would take 7 to 14 days for it to be printed and shipped.

[Guest darkstar]

They told me the same thing when I called...issued that exact day and they would send out to print etc, etc. One week later to the day I had it so hopefully you'll have yours this week!!

That's somewhat good news to me -- I applied the same day as you. We probably passed each other in the Franklin DMV that morning!

Did you take your class over at the Williamson Co. Sheriff's Office? They're a great bunch of guys. That's where I took mine, and I've sent countless people their way. I plan on going back for more, indepth courses.

[bubbadavis]

No, I took it at Guns and Leather in Greenbrier. I live out in Bellevue, so I'm close to nothing! I do work in Franklin, so maybe that's an option for later on. I'm definitely interested in taking some more classes. You can never learn too much!

I do like the avatar... I've been Bubba since I was about 6. My high school yearbook even had me listed as Bubba. Its on my business cards... dang I'm a redneck!
