11/15 - Training certs uploaded

Those that recently renewed, do you sit and wait till they call or did you give them a call?

9/5 - Renewal submitted with training cert uploaded
11/26 - Received an email stating application assigned to a person for processing and to verify everything was uploaded correctly in advance.
12/4 - Received an email asking to correct a certificate error regarding the caliber of one of my firearms not matching what was DROSed. I emailed back an explanation of the SSE DROSed firearm.
12/4 - They called me up within hours explaining for DOJ audit purposes, they can no longer allow the DROSed gun to have a different caliber than the training certificate, so my best/quickest option was to drop the gun from the list (had 5 on there anyway)
Within hours my application was approved

I don't know if anyone else has run into this yet in Orange County, but I had to remove a Gen 1 off-roster Shield that I bought back in the Single Shot exemption (SSE) days in 2014 and added to my permit back in 2021 because if OCSD is audited by the DOJ, it might not look good. I can't fault my issuing agency. They have been and continue to be a great bunch of people to deal with. I have better guns on my permit including a Shield Plus but I like options. I'll probably send in the form to correct it with DOJ and try again with it down the line when it's convenient.

I just waited. You should get notified when you are assigned someone or you can log into the system to check status. Mine went in about a 1 1/2 months before you and they just approved mine. My expiration is just before Christmas. If yours is coming up any sooner it could be worth calling or emailing.

Mine expired yesterday the 4th.

Their standard operating procedure at this point seems to be opening the renewal application window starting 140 days before expiry. Let the reader understand...
