Sounds like that worked out in your favor.

Can you go ahead and do the CCW training before "Proceed with training" email? Just wondering.

Yes; but this has to be qualified- provided that you are at a striking distance already, meaning that all three parts of your livescan has already cleared; otherwise you will be running the risk that your training will have been expired at the time you get a proceed to training email. Remember that your training certs is good for a year from date of issuance and with more than 60,000 applications todate, expect everything to be slower and longer than it already is.

That it did. I guess the moral of the story is to just go with the flow and not be hyper focused on the process. All that seems to do is stress us all out lol.

Yes. I have had my interview, and passed all 3 livescans.

Picked up my permit this morning. Lots of people both interviewing or picking up today. Arrived at the Monterey Park office, waited 30 minutes till my name was called. Easy quick meet, photo, sign and pay. Turns out the approval was dated 3 weeks ago. Total time from start to end, 4 days shy of 15 months.

I do not know your timeline brother, but theoretically yes you can. As these things are not codified nor any implementing rules and regs were published, the timeline from livescan completion to proceed to training email varries. For instance, my boss' took 15 days from the time his FA section cleared, mine on the other hand took 109 days.

This thing should not be based on the luck of the draw if there is a clear guideline and procedural road map, it should be based on order of priority; however as CCW issuance in LA County was novel at the time these started, those guidelines and procedures are not clear hence the variation in timelines and delays.

There are those that take less than a year, those that are a year, and those that takes longer without rhyme and reason. If you look at my timeline, you would see that I am in for 15 months already and is still waiting for a pick up call.

In other sub forums in Calguns, some are suggesting filing a writ of mandamus and exhusting administrative remedies before doing so; but an orinary Tom, Dick and Harry without the backing of big lobbyist cannot just do that because it would be cost-prohibitive to do so, considering that these special civil action(s) are against the state (against the county to be exact) and they would be represented by state or county attorneys as the case may be. A writ of mandamus btw is an order by a judge directed to an instrumentality of government to do their job; in essence it compels that governmental instrument, here, the LASD to do thier job and expedite issuance of CCW Permits to law abiding citizens. THAT is a full blown adversarial proceeding which requires a lot of funding as Attorneys here in the US bill by the hour and are very expensive.

Going back to your original question, at this point where all three parts of your livecan has cleared then your training certs, should you wish to proceed is valid for a year and in all probability, it would not take a year for your proceed to training email to come. Going to training ahead of time or pre-empting the training email saves time in this process but of course, the risk is there.

For us that went through the distance, the proceed to training email is the signal that all other things have cleared and in all probability we will get issued the permit.

My two cents; now, time for me to get back to work! Goodluck brother and see you when you get there.

At last !!!....since you already have your Utah permit, you already have coverage in Nevada ... treat yourself to a Las Vegas road trip!!!

Source? Last I heard, LAPD accepts applications by appointment only, which is entirely on hold right now.

There needs to be a lawsuit drafted for this. They are outright denying a constitutional right for BS reasons.

Updated my signature with my dates. Hopefully it will come soon (proceed with training email). I might just go ahead and schedule

Was looking at the procedure of filing a Writ of Administrative Mandamus (or Administrative Mandate), which I believe would be the proper writ to file in the case of one who was previously denied prior to NYSRPA and would compel an administrative agency (LASD) to reverse their final decision or order. Though, it looks like there is a statute of limitations by which time the petition for writ must be filed.

I believe a Writ of Ordinary Mandamus (Ordinary Mandate) would be the route to take if a collective of applicants were inclined to simply light a fire under the LASD to compel the agency to speed up the general processing timeline.

I would think CRPA would have their Attorney write them up, leave blanks for your name and dates. Basically a fill in the blanks and file. I doubt Sheriff V even cares if you file, he knows what the law is, isn't complying, he will just dig in as he has with other issues.

I passed all 3 backgrounds on 8-20, I'm going to training next Saturday no matter if they send me the email or not
