I can't remember what I paid initially. I think it was around $60. You've got to pay the instructor and the state.it does when it costs hundreds of dollars to get one
I wish Texas would follow Iowa's lead. I have to renew my carry license every three years and pay a $48 processing fee. I guess it's to cover the cost of running a fresh background check on me. I find it completely unnecessary. But they don't want to hear about what I think. They never have.
