    Nope, I just got my HQL card in the mail and all I sent was the certificate of completion of the Texas hunters safety course.

    Did you use the standard application or training exempt application? I used the training exempt application. I'm wondering if that's what's causing my delay.

    I may have hit a snag on mine. MSP Trooper contacted me advising he didn't see my training exemption. I did the Texas Hunter training online course which others here have done and were successfully approved.

    Resent form letter and Texas Hunter Temp ID to MSP trooper, but now he's saying that he needs to see the Texas DNR card.

    For those who did the Texas Hunter online training course did any of you encounter this problem?


    What DNR card? The actual physical Hunter safety card not the temp one?

    I haven't received my permanent card and I wasn't too worried about it because I submitted a copy of temp card and a copy of signed temp card.

    Submitted my app 11/15. Still waiting.

    edit -- mine was submitted with training exemption.

    Trooper was mixing up terminology, I suppose. When I spoke to him I asked him about the "Texas DNR card" , but he went on to say that he needed to just see the Texas hunter safety certification which I can only guess was the "Texas DNR" that he was referring to. He initially only reviewed 1 of 2 docs I sent him. First page was the form letter, second page was the TX temp cert card. When I spoke to him he reviewed the second page and approved

    Approved today. Started 11/11/2016. DD-214 training exempt.

    Now it's just a matter of waiting on the card.

    I think I know what I'm doing this weekend :lol2:

    Applied 11/15.

    Got a call earlier today stating they needed a copy of hunter safety course card. Said they called DNR but couldn't find anything with my name. I said it was Texas DNR so that's why.

    Sent copy of card via email, HQL listed as active an hour later.

    Is there maybe something wrong with my application? What action can I take? It's been 32 days and still not active or disapproved, just "Pending". Any help is appreciated
