I was told they'd be in touch if there was a problem, but who knows. I asked them because mine was taking so long. You are looking at about 3 months total unless you get lucky. Next time, at renewal, I'm going lifetime.
It took about a week for them to answer and actually they sent their reply immediately after my approval email. I was told to expect 45 days in background check and they pretty much nailed it. So you may be facing 45 days from your accepted email. "Approved" means it's done and on its way to you.
And ... APPROVED! I should receive permit next week.
So, about 97 days for me. App. submitted: 12/01/15. Accepted and paid on 01/14/15.
Marshrunner757, hang in there!! Your turn is coming. (Tip - I skipped the phone call after the 45-days for the background check passed and e-mailed my...
Agree. I have been patient, but am becoming frustrated. There has to be a more efficient process besides sweet [nice] ladies running the show. Then I remember I am dealing with the .gov. Louisiana .gov, at that. One day, after I have forgotten about it, the permit will arrive. Started...
I would like to carry IWB of my pants/skirts. Pants are fitted rather than loose (no "mom" jeans!). Anything you can recommend that is thin and disappears? Has to accommodate the Streamlight light/laser. In cooler months, I do wear cardigans, but obviously, not in warm months. Shirts other...
LoL, me, too. I'm hoping next month will bring the "Approved" e-mail. From what I have read here, aways take the drive to BR if possible. Obviously, many cannot. I could have, but 2 people I knew mailed their prints in and got their permits quickly. Guess they hit it during a better time...
LoL. As I said, this person wasn't the usual helpful person, her voice indicated she didn't really want to be of much help. I guess they get tired of answering the same questions. Hope it won't take that long. Although, I did submit divorce papers from 15 years ago with my app. Perhaps mine...
I called end of last week to ask about the the background check since my e-mail arrived a few days before MLK Day and I haven't heard anything. She advised it takes about 40-60 days once it enters in into background check, so we will see. This lady wasn't the previous helpful person. I did...
Just picked up a G43 on Saturday. I ordered the Pearce extensions and light/laser (Streamlight TR-6) from Amazon and they just arrived today.
Now it gets confusing as I have a S&W airweight, Sig P290RS and the G I can carry once my permit arrives.
