Looks like I'm moving down to OC from SCC in the near future.

Website lists DD214 for military. Are they just trying to verify you aren't a prohibited person? And does an honorable discharge tip things in your favor for getting approved?

I'd say not officially, but I can't imagine it doesn't influence the investigator for the good. An Honorable Discharge helps, if for mothing else, in the good morale character column.

I would say that being honorably discharge is a plus but showing good morale character and transparency will be key.

I just recently got approved, I almost want to say in record time, after all requested documents were submitted post interview. Got an approval the next hour. I have no military background, purchased all my firearms in the last year and had a hiccup with disclosing a misdemeanor from almost 20 years ago.

OCSD seems to really want to issue and want to help you get approved. They just have to cover themselves by have necessary documents on file.

I got that impression from SDSO also.

Question. Are we supposed to have the paper permit on us in addition to the hard license?

[918JBAM]

I was specifically told that the paper copy was the official permit and the CC-type card wasn't valid until the CA DOJ approves it. So far DOJ hasn't approved the CC permit.

Did the department tell you this?

I have added to my permit last year, so didn't think about the renewal till I received a email reminder from the OC sheriff on Jan 11. Email said allow 90 days

Expiry: 3/21/2021

submitted renewal packet: 1/12/2021
emailed for status: 3/1/2021
received: 3/2/2021 Hello,

You are welcome to complete the training, but it is paid out of pocket and not refundable so you can also wait until instructed to do so.

Email received 3/11/2021 - they said to go ahead and complete training and upload cert. I asked regarding pre-approval and she said that they now require it beforehand, but my app looks like it should be fine for approval.

On her email it now says allow 90-120 days for renewal

3/18/2021- submitted completed class and qualification cert.
3/19/2021 - email stating they have received all docs and waiting approval.

Moral of story, allow more time. Mine will lapse, but 2 years came by fast and with addendums, I was thinking I still had a year to renew.

btw, if it's hard to get into a class, OC firearms offers online renewal classes.

UPDATE:

3/22/2021 received approval email at 3p that said that they would contact me to do payment over the phone. (still no in person anything).
Of course I didn't read it till next day after calling a few times with no answer.

3/24/2021 - received call from them a little bit ago for payment. They will mail out permit tomorrow and said to expect it in 3-4 days.

Stoked!

Asked to submit copy of my Utah CCW and SIGNED certificate of completion for training course. Forgot to sign certificate so had to resubmit signed copy.

Submitted additional requested documentation within hours of completing interview.

Received email 2 days later on a Saturday morning that I had been approved.

Hello I'm fairly new here and was wondering what I could put for my CCW permit as a GC? I do photography on the side and handle a lot of cash transactions and my equipment is worth a fair amount, I also go to the shooting range often and I live in a not so good city. Also just turned 21 years old, Any tips would be appreciated! thank you.

Or a link on where to go check out a post.
