Sacramento Sheriff office needs to email you approval of your application. They recommend waiting for they approval email before starting live scan, because if for some reason you are denied, you will be out the cost of the live scan. My initial interview was 1/26, but I started my live scan a few weeks ago, and have still not received an approval email from Sac Sheriffs office.

My initial interview was 2/15 for a new license. I kept waiting for the approval email but since I still don't have it, I decided to start doing things in parallel, so I did the livescan last week. I know it's risking the expense, but I'm thinking of taking my CCW class soon too. I was reading the info on the CCW start page and it says:

"If applying for a NEW Concealed Carry Weapon license, an 16-hour firearms training course must be completed within 180 days prior to issuance."

What this means is if I took the CCW class at the end of April, I'd have until the end of October (180 days or ~6 months) to complete the process and have my issuance, correct?

My live scan took 4 months October to Feb . You might want to wait and do your training after your live scan comes back. It's a 180 days after live sacn to compleat your qualifications and paperwork . If you get your live scan today you will still have to schedule your isuance apt. Which my take a month to get. Taking the CCW corse before will just give you somthing to do wont really speed up the process.

Good luck

I used Shoot Train Retain for Sacramento County it was 139.00 and zero for extra weapons plus a cert for Arizona which makes it a 34 state permit

Good points about the timing of everything, thanks.

And I'm very interested in the last point about the cert for AZ. I hadn't thought about that. The CCW course at my gun club doesn't have a cert for other states, so I wasn't even thinking about that... yet. How does it work? If took the course from Shoot Train Retain, I'd get my CA CCW license, but how would I get the AZ license with that cert?

It's part of his corse when your done you get all paperwork for Sacramento County and a certificate for AZ then you go online and request a non resadent ccw package it has 2 finger print card and papers to fill out. Mail a copy of the certificate fingerprint cards and 60 bucks and them wait. You will reciver a plastic card looks like a AAA card and your good to go .

With the change on the website from 30 to 45 days prior to expiration as the recommended time to submit renewal app and documents, and anecdotal reports of SSD personnel verbally recommending 60 days, I'm wondering if this mysterious, buggy new system does something strange if you attempt to apply earlier than 45 days out. Maybe is simply gives an error message that it's too early, which would be okay. What wouldn't be okay is if it gives the appearance of accepting everything and then eighty-sixes it with no indication of its action. Has anyone applied >45 out? If so, what response did the system give you?

Fast Permit renewal

Got my notice to pick up renewed permit.
All the discussion here had me very worried. Current permit expires 4/29.

I submitted my application on 3/22, thinking that I would be at least 45 days. So now I pick it up on 4/13, or 16 days before the original expires.

Must have done something right for a change. This is how the system should work. Great job Sac Sheriff's office.

Just submitted an address change modification online. Does anyone know what their current turnaround time is?
Thanks

Submitted change of address: 04/05/2017
Received autocall and email approval: 04/11/2017

Six days is better than than I could have hoped for, will pickup on Thursday.
Hopefully weapon modifications eventually become this quick.

I submitted mine 2/18 on a 4/22 expiration, so that is just over 60 days. I already have my renewal, so no issues at all.

Omg, the officer told me to do the live scan the same day.

Any new applicants with January initial meetings that get approval calls/emails, please report for other new-apps. Thanks.

Seeing lots of good movement for renewals and address changes.
Not much on new apps it seems.

Well Bruce,

Another problem is that there are 2500 applicants in the Legacy database, before the online process started. We still have to get Issuance Appointments. These appointments are only on Fridays and are limited by a bunch of different things. Through some contacts and Private messages on Calguns, it seems like the 7th is the only Friday that opened for Issuance Appointments for the entire month of April. I could be wrong and I truly hope someone will follow up with a post informing that there were other days opened.

Unfortunately many of the Legacy database applicants have been checking in multiple times per day for months. The 16 hour CCW course is only accepted for six months before it expires.

Unfortunately for the online applicants, I really hope that catching up on renewals will allow more time for Issuance Appointments. There are a lot of people in front of the online applicants, the process is a lot more backed up than you realize.

Keep your chin up and stay with it
