San Diego CCW

[CessnaDriver]

I finally got a response from Meyers's team regarding CCW and GC, "There is information available about his CCW Policy position along with a CCW Policies and Procedures position paper that outlines the process of a CCW under his leadership. Dave still believes that Self Defense is acceptable for good cause in obtaining a CCW Permit."

For this, he will get my vote.

My view is we do need to vote for the absolute most solid pro CCW candidate. And that means blinders on for everything else. Which is of course asking a lot. It's not my nature and I'm sure not anyone's here to have blinders on. However, it would be too easy to lose ground with the wrong Sheriff and give up years of great progress. Of course campaign promises are worth little but sometimes that's all we have. At least we can look at consistency of message with Meyers. If it's a close election?... CCW holders could be the key.

For what it's worth, in the last election, Meyers was was crystal clear that he would accept "self defense" as GC, which would make him the only urban CA Sheriff to do so. It remains to be seen if he still has the same position, and if that is even relevant by the time the election rolls around.

How long did it take yalls permit to arrive in the mail after the queue email?

The representative on the phone told me they have till 90 days maximum to approve. They also said it may take a little longer if they can’t verify citations like speeding tickets but not to worry about the dates it will not affect your approval. Mine took about 98 days as well.

i think i received the phone call notifying me of my approval about a week, give or take, before the 90 day mark. ymmv

Congrats Helmut! Glad it worked out for you! I bet those were some long 8 days.

Funny things is after day 93 or so I stopped checking my emails for the approval/denial. Then voila get a random text from a 323 area code number saying approved. Lol

[Helmut]

I received my approval text/email and phone call today for San Diego at day 98.

San Diego County CCW 90 Day Wait

Following my interview, I am roughly about half way through the 90 day wait period.

Is this period fixed at 90 days? Or when space becomes available, could SDSO complete their background investigations earlier than that 90 day mark?

No rush, just curious if its a window that must pass in its entirety, or if its a 'soft' window to allow them adequate and ample background investigation time.

Thanks everyone!

-EDIT: If I was posted in the wrong section, my apologies, please move me to the correct sub-forum!

This past Monday, I filled out the Permitium application informing SDCSD that I have moved. This afternoon, Thursday, I received an email from Lisa Harper saying they had received the application and that my updated license will arrive in 3-4 weeks.

Much faster than I expected for any response...

I think the recent change to mailing permits rather than in person pickup has worked well.

Looks like you're in the same boat as my family member. He's been bugging me because I told him mine and friends was under the 90 day mark. I figure the holidays and COVID has added to that processing time.

[Helmut]

Yikes.. 4 days over.

I’m currently at day 94 as well. My interview date was also 11/22/2021. Permitium still says processing order.
