How and when can I check the status of my application?
How:
You can check the status of an electronic or paper application on-line at the Arizona Department of Public Safety's License Status tab.
You can also check the status by calling (602) 223-2361. Based on the number of callers ahead of you, you may experience a wait time.
When:
The status of a paper application will not be available on-line, or if you call, until it has been entered into the DPS database. How long before it is entered will vary daily, based on mail transport time and the volume of applications received by DPS. No specific time frame can be provided.
For electronic applications allow approximately 24 to 48 hours (could possibly take longer) after you have been fingerprinted for the status to be available online.
