The average CCW issue time?

[RustyHammer]

Online, but mailed prints instead of doing them there. Think that held me up.

...thanks for the update, Daisy. I'm about two weeks behind you in the process, same path with online, finger prints, etc.

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 inquiry. Advised them date submitted, accepted, approved, and that 45 days had passed in the background check, and just wanted to check status. My e-mail was answered by them today, as well as the approval, almost simultaneously. Maybe an e-mail is better than a phone call.)

Thanks for the info. I'll try emailing them.

What's their email. One I have doesn't work. And I am guessing yours is a new app being u mailed in finger prints. Mine was a renewal no prints needed and still waiting started 1-23-16. I guess at the 2 month mark I'll call and see what the hell is going on. Still hoping they pass the carry bill for state so we don't have to go through this ********.

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.

The wife just got hers. Took about 5 weeks. We did paperwork and fingerprints at LSP in Baton Rouge. Still awaiting mine.

Little brown envelope showed up today. Took about 2 months all together.

 

[marshrunner757]

Damn. Mine should be coming soon

Emailed them last week no response yet. Starting to get ridiculous with this ****. I know they backed up but it's really a joke now. 5 years ago mailed everything in my first time and only took a month and a half.

 

[marshrunner757]

I emailed them as well with no response.

... yeah, seems like all stop. Online app in December ... still waiting.

 

[medic66]

I sent an email a week ago today. Still no response. I called 3 times yesterday and received a busy signal every time. I received the approved email stating I should receive my permit in 10-15 working days on February 15th. Still nothing.

wife just took the course. Now to file. is it better to file online then drive to BR for the finger prints or do the paperwork and fingerprints the same time in BR?

 

[sacosta66]

I had a friend that did hers at the HQ in BR and received hers in just over 2 weeks in December. She only had a couple of address changes and no divorces to be submitted.
I believe the odds are better if completed in person at HQ.

 

[RustyHammer]

In person ... they even told me that when I asked them about it a few weeks after submitting in December.

Yes, apply online and go to HQ for prints. I and others have learned this the hard way.

Why apply online when you still have to.go up for prints?
