My interviewing deputy summarized the 3 possible outcomes for me after the interview and given the livescan form:

1. CCW Unit head has more questions or needs more documentation to substantiate my GC, before making final decision.

2. Livescan clears and CCW Unit head approves GC and I am told to proceed to training.

3. CCW Unit head does not approve GC, and I will be mailed a denial letter.

While it is a positive sign if the interviewing deputy thinks your GC is good enough, for you to proceed with livescan, they are not the final authority in approving your GC. Even my deputy cautioned some traffic tickets I got could hurt my chances regarding my permit being approved, but still encouraged me to get the livescan done.

Traffic tickets are an issue? I have a couple misdemeanors and a felony that was reduced to a misdemeanor all in the late eighties. Verifiable good moral character for the last thirty years. Anybody get approved with some old history on their live scan?

I do recall one guy posting how the interviewer would follow up to do the live scan which is odd.

That may have been me, but I know there were a couple others who reported the same.

I received an email about a week after my interview directing me to proceed with getting the LiveScan done. Unsure about how or if the others received a similar follow up.

I think it all comes down to your good cause. If the deputy feels your good cause is solid he would tell you to do it right after the interview. The deputy told me to do training and live scan right after my interview.

Good luck to everyone interviewing. Congrats to all those picking up on the 16th!

Because SCTrojan24 got in right before the big April wave of applications deluged the staff and you got in as the wave crested, or better, crashed the system.

That's not 100 percent true. Many of my students with solid RED GC have not received their interviews. Their apps were in late March and 1st week of April. Just last week, some of them started to receive the calls for the interview.

Yes, I had an arrest in the 90s that the DA dismissed, that I fully disclosed per the application. I explained the details to the deputy and it wasn't a big deal to him. He was more concerned about much more recent suspended license, than about decades old history.

I think you should be fine.

Thanks for posting the stats from today's video update from AV!

Medic Up, where many of us did our CCW training is good about posting AV's CCW updates. In today's briefing, AV acknowledges they are now a victim of their own success, and that while he will try to add a few more staff to CCW unit, be prepared for a long wait:

1397 issued. 271 in the hopper. 6202 total applications as of September 08, 2021.

That means 36 more have received their CCW since last week. Still a crawl.

At that pace, for any one new thinking to apply, do it now and remember to vote For AV

Don't feel bad, at the rate things are churning, I will likely be retiring in June, my wife will be retiring in August. In September of next year we are moving out of State, so I likely will be moving by the time they even get to mine.
I would still like to know how many have been denied, then you know how many are sitting in the pile waiting, but at less than 40 approvals a week, they are likely a year behind now, maybe longer.

Unless they change their process (perhaps only conducting interviews if they see flags or have serious questions) it feels like we will be lucky if we can get our licenses before the next election.
