Question for you gentleman who have submitted your training, did you guys wait to get the proceed to training email or did you get your interview and just went ahead and knocked out the training to submit the training right away when you get the PTT email? I feel like just getting it done now to speed up the process if at all possible.

This is a decision you have to make.

I am not sure on the split of who waits to get PTT email and who gets it done early. I personally wanted to get training done early so I could submit as soon as I got the PTT email. I guess you could take a peek at this spreadsheet and see how many people did training early.

I applied in Glendora, at my interview the officer told me everything looks good, and to. Go take the course, I never received a email.

Being a thorn in their side...not kidding, I was. I bugged them and contacted my County Supervisor a few times. My buddy who applied exactly 1-week after me is 2-3 months behind me on everything. It is just ridiculous.

Also, I'm not sure about everyone's pickup experience, but the female Deputy who issued my permit was very standoffish. Not even a hello, or a reply when I said good morning. Just, "I need your ID and cashiers check or money order".

Not sure what time you called, but good luck getting an answer on the phone any time after 1pm.

I feel like the unit uses the "Your file is pending final review" to buy time. I called a few weeks ago to ask about the issuance stoppage and I was told my file was complete, just waiting on the call to schedule the pickup appt.

I sent my training 5/8/2024 so I'm a few weeks behind everyone right now I feel.

I waited for PTT and would advise the same. The wait sucks but be patient.

There have been mixed answers from LASD personnel about the training done prior to Jan 1, 2024. Some were told they could do an additional 8 hours, for initial, to get the 16 hours and others, like me, were told we had to do all new training.

I wasnt asked specifically about MJ use, just "drug use." I said something along the lines of "smoked it around high school" and the deputy responded "oh, that doesnt even count."

Yea same here, said over 12 years ago, no issue and they wrote that down. Just confused now on the online question that lumps it in with addiction etc (question 16)

Yep they did not ask anything about MJ, just said controlled substances in general.
