FID through State Police questions

[electric10162]

Just did my change of address/ new and two pistol permits. Less than a month after applying online. This was with Augusta State Police.

3-6 months if through the state police. I submitted my handgun permit application July 3 and still waiting. Like nb6624 said , the process is a fn travesty of bureaucracy from its initial submission to the very end. FYI I think state law says it must be completed in 30 days. Maybe this needs to be challenged.

If it makes the process easier and quicker i am all in for an increase in fees

I guess you don't understand why they are called "rights" and not privileges.

The process is changing due to a study performed by the Attorney General's Office and a Directive that was issued in 2016. It has a soft date for rollout around November 1st. See my prior posts about this subject

21 days😅😅😅😅. Your looking a 3 months. Troopers do the invest and submit it to division within a week. Then it sits on a pile in Trenton for 2 months. Totally ridiculous.  The system is broken 

  That's what I was afraid of, but I suppose that's the trade-off of having State Police coverage.  Still better than having a local PD though, at least out here.

I did my change of address in NJ a couple years ago.  Took somewhere around a month, maybe two.  

In NJ you must supply names and numbers for personal references.  I that's the same in PA make sure you tell your references to expect a call and to answer the call.

Let’s hope it works out. As of right now the state is not ready for that.

Took me 30-32 days the day I went for my Application in Woodbridge. That was maybe 6-7 years ago. Recently moved to Old Bridge two years ago and got around to changing my address on my FID and that took about 2-3 weeks only.

And how would you know that or is that just an assumption ?
